Prediction: 2-1
Hungary
Third place in Group A will be at stake when Scotland and Hungary go head to head at MHPArena on Sunday evening. The Scotts quickly bounced back from a heavy 5-1 loss to Germany, with the team sharing the spoils with Switzerland in their second group game, but they face a must-win situation against Hungary. Real Sociedad defender Kieran Tierney limped off with injury against the Rossocrociati, with Scott McKenna likely to step up.
The Hungarians, on the other hand, have been struggling at the European Championship finals, with the team losing each of their two group games. As Hungary are obviously struggling at the back, we are tempted to put our money on Andy Robertson and Co. this time out. There are no fresh injury worries in Marco Rossi’s team ahead of the trip to Stuttgart. When the two teams met in a friendly six years ago Scotland defeated Hungary 1-0 thanks to Matt Phillips’ goal.
Highlighted Team (Scotland):
Despite being part of United Kingdom Scotland participate in football competitions as an independent country. The Scots qualified for the 1950 FIFA World Cup finals, but the SFA eventually withdrew their entry as they were not British champions. Four years later Scotland national football team participated at the showpiece tournament in Switzerland, but they were eliminated in the group stages.
Scotland booked their place at the FIFA World Cup on eight occasions, but they have not played a match at the finals of the major tournament since 1998. On the other hand, the Scotts participated at both Euro 1992 and Euro 1996, but they failed to qualify for the knockout stages at the tournaments in Sweden and England respectively. A number of Premier League stars played for the Scotland national football team in the past and Jim Baxter, Hughie Gallacher, John Greig, Jimmy Johnstone, Billy McNeill, Bobby Murdoch, Archie Gemmill and Lawrie Reilly are the footballers who made more than 50 appearances for Scotland, with Alan Hutton and Scott Brown joining the list recently.
The Scotts recorded their biggest win back in February 23, 1901, with the team rolling over Ireland 11-0. The team suffered their biggest defeat against Uruguay (0-7) in June, 1954. Gordon Strachan’s team welcome their opponents at Hampden Park.
