Germany vs Scotland bet-builder tips
Bet-builder tip 1: Germany to win
Hosts Germany head into their opening Group A match as favourites after a run of three wins in four matches that compares highly favourably with Scotland’s current sequence of one win in nine.
The likes of Kai Havertz, Jamal Musiala and Florian Wirtz all had excellent seasons for their clubs and the national team have been taking shape since Julian Nagelsmann was appointed last autumn.
Scotland had a good qualifying campaign but have struggled since, losing to England, France, Spain and the Netherlands in the past year.
Germany have beaten France and the Netherlands recently and, with home advantage, should be too strong for Steve Clarke’s side.

Bet-builder tip 2: Havertz to score any time
As mentioned, Havertz had an excellent season for Arsenal, winning over the doubters in his role as a central striker and scoring regularly for club and country.
Havertz netted 13 times in the Premier League for Arsenal and has scored three goals in his last six matches for Germany, against France, Turkey and Greece.
Scotland have failed to keep a clean sheet in eight of their last nine games, with their only shut-out coming against minnows Gibraltar, so Havertz should have plenty of chances.
Bet-builder tip 3: McGinn to be carded
Scotland will be fired up for this occasion and one of the players who continually performs well for his country is John McGinn.
The midfielder’s aggressive style of play should benefit Scotland as they look to impose themselves on Germany in this big game.
McGinn had nine yellow cards in 35 Premier League matches for Aston Villa this season and is known for his combative nature on the field.
Germany have the likes of Wirtz and Musiala who are sure to trouble Scotland and it wouldn’t be a surprise to see McGinn enter the referee’s notebook.
