On June 14, some fans will gather at the Allianz Arena in Munich, while others will gather around their television screens to watch the opening match of the long-awaited Euro 2024. The tournament’s host team, Germany, will face Scotland. The Bundesteam hopes to correct its recent failures in international tournaments and the “Tartan Army” dreams of reaching the European Championship playoffs for the first time. The game starts at 22:00 Moscow time.
In anticipation of the event, we decided to consider the most unusual bets in the game between Germans and Scots. Bookmakers offer high odds for them. Do any of the options have a chance to play? We will resolve it.
On which channel will the opening match of Euro 2024 be broadcast?
You can watch the match between Germany and Scotland live on the Match TV channel!
There should be some intrigue in a match like this.
While we wait for a miracle from Julian Nagelsmann, we must not forget about the players themselves. The opening match is always a special responsibility. The players will be under pressure, especially the Germans. They are obliged to win that match because they are the hosts of the tournament. Therefore, it makes sense to consider betting in favor of a late goal.
If Germany still does not take the lead before the 81st minute, it will mount great pressure on the Scots, who may not be able to withstand such an attack. If the “Tartan Army” loses, then, hoping to draw, it can reveal its rear and take risks. But this is not the only reason to bet on a goal from the 81st minute onwards.
Main faces of Euro 2024:
Kane, Ronaldo or Mbappé: who will score the most goals at Euro 2024?
In the last two of the three friendly matches, the Bundesteam scored in the 85th minute. Scotland, meanwhile, scored a goal in the 85th minute in the last two test matches. Therefore, you can bet on a goal from minute 81 onwards for 2.18.
One can only dream of such an outcome.
Let’s go back to the statistics of the last matches, in which the German team has already gotten used to Nagelsmann. The Bundesteam has a good squad, so it is possible that the player who comes on as a substitute will score the winning goal. Of course, this is possible considering that the tie will remain at least until the 60th minute.
In a recent friendly, Nagelsmann replaced Havertz for Füllkrug when the score was 1:1. Almost 12 minutes later, Niklas scored the winning goal. In the last match against Greece, Pascal Gros, who came on as a substitute, scored the winning goal in the 89th minute.
There is a risk, of course, and it is not small. But still it is worth checking the bet that in the Germany – Scotland match the winning goal will be scored by a substitute player with an odds of 5.00.
Toni Kroos is back in the national team!
The key figure in the opening match of Euro 2024 could be 34-year-old Kroos. After the disastrous 2020 European Championships, all the dogs were out for Tony. Fans and pundits blamed him. The legendary Bundestim footballer Lothar Matthäus used very rude words against the midfielder. He said Kroos is no longer a world-class player.

Another star, Uli Hoenes, thought that Toni is too slow for modern football. As a result, the Real Madrid player decided to end his career in the national team. Before the start of Euro 2024, Julian Nagelsmann managed to convince Kroos to return. And the midfielder himself has repeatedly said that he would like to play the European Championship at home with his national team’s shirt. His wishes will be fulfilled.
What can we expect from Kroos after all this? Of course, such a surprising comeback should be marked by a goal or an assist in the opening match of the tournament. You can bet on this at odds of 2.85. In a recent friendly against the Netherlands, Toni already assisted Füllkrug, who scored the winning goal.
let’s summarize it
What can we expect from the match between Germany and Scotland? I want intrigue, unexpected twists and memorable events. For example, seeing a goal in the last minutes of regulation time. Or maybe this goal becomes the winning goal and one of the players who came on as a substitute scores it? And finally, I really want Kroos’ comeback to be marked by effective action.
Bet 1: There will be a goal at half-time starting in the 81st minute and later at 2.18.
Bet 2: The winning goal will be scored by the player who came on as a substitute before 5:00 a.m.
Bet 3: Toni Kroos will score a goal or provide an assist in 2.85.
