Head-to-Head

Scotland and Czech Republic have won four matches each in nine meetings with one draw.

Scotland Form

Scotland enter Euro 2020 in decent form and they are unbeaten in their last five matches.

Steve Clarke's side drew 2-2 with the Netherlands and beating Luxembourg 1-0 in their two warm-up matches.

Scotland were in complete control against Luxembourg. Che Adams opened the scoring on 27 minutes before Luxembourg had a player sent off 10 minutes later. Scotland couldn’t add to their score, despite having 56% possession and 18 shots.

The Tartan Army have been hard to beat recently. Score draws against Austria (2-2) and Israel (1-1) came before a 4-0 victory over the Faroe Islands in March’s World Cup qualifiers.

Czech Republic Form

The Czech Republic bounced back from recent losses against Wales (1-0) and Italy (4-0). They defeated Albania 3-1 in their final Euro 2020 warm-up match on Tuesday.

The Czech Republic were on top from the outset and Patrik Schick opened the scoring on 18 minutes. Albania battled back and equalised late in the first half, before Lukas Masopust and Ondrej Celustka sealed the win.

Jaroslav Silhavy’s side had 75% possession and were clinical, scoring with all three of their shots.

The Czech Republic have struggled for form leading up to the Euros. Three comfortable wins against Israel, Slovakia and Estonia were followed by a 1-1 draw with Belgium and losses to Italy and Wales.
