Here we are with the first match of the new week in EURO 2021. This will also count for the second match of Group D. We will watch Scotland and the Czech Republic having a clash at the home grounds of Scotland. The first match of Group D just ended with England taking the victory with 1 goal over Croatia at the Wembley Stadium in London. Croatia might have lost but the 2018 World Cup runner-ups have their eyes on the top 2 places. England is a solid favorite to finish this group in the first place. So, in this scenario, Scotland and the Czech Republic will be looking to finish the group in 3rd place to have a chance to move onto the next stage. This is why it will be a very crucial game for both teams and a decisive one for the group.
Scotland wants to break out of the group stage in this tournament and achieve a first in its history. Trying to stand solid in defense and score goals with their offensive wing formations, Scotland is planning to win this match against the Czech Republic. In the last five matches they played, they are unbeaten with 2 wins and 3 draws. Just 9 days before the Euro 2021 they drew against a strong team like the Netherlands.
The Czech Republic must collect points in this match, if they want to do something in the group and don’t want to stay in the last place, just like Scotland. Their last 5 matches ended with 2 wins, 2 losses, and 1 draw. They have a pretty balanced record. So, these stats don’t give us much to go on with.
Prediction:
Based on the fact that this will be a very important match for both of the teams and they have similar forms a “draw” outcome looks possible. But also last 4 head-to-head matches saw Scotland winning 3 of those matches and the remaining one ended with a draw. We can also say that the Scots are trying to achieve four consecutive victories against this opponent. Scotland to win could be the other option we can go.
