Scotland Predicted Lineup vs. Hungary<\/span><\/h2>\n

How Scotland Have Lined-up Recently<\/span><\/h3>\n

The Tartan Army mostly line up in a 3-4-2-1 formation with Norwich City goalkeeper Angus Gunn in goal. Steve Clarke, unfortunately, lost his two preferred right-backs before the tournament, meaning Anthony Ralston has started both games at Euro 2024. In the last game, with Ryan Porteous suspended after his red card against Germany, it was Jack Hendry, Grant Hanley and Kieran Tierney starting in a back three, with Ralston and Andrew Robertson starting in the win-back positions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Following the heavy defeat against Germany, Billy Gilmour came in for the second game alongside Callum McGregor, with Steve Clarke describing both as “<\/span>outstanding<\/span><\/a>” after the second game draw. Ahead of these two, it’s expected we will see Scott McTominay and John McGinn get the nod. We <\/span>are expecting<\/span> Adams to start in attack because of his excellent work rate.<\/span><\/p>\n

Scotland<\/span> Recent Form and Tactics<\/span><\/h3>\n

The Tartan Army endured a difficult build-up to Euro 2024, blowing a 2-0 lead against Finland and experiencing heavy defeats against Netherlands and France. A victory against Gibraltar was the Tartan Army’s first win since their\u00a0<\/span>3-0 success vs. Cyprus<\/span><\/a> on September 8, 2023.<\/span><\/p>\n

After the opening game defeat, Steve Clarke’s men showed their toughness, grinding out a draw against the Swiss to keep their knockout hopes alive. We expect Scotland to line up in their consistent 3-4-2-1 formation for this\u00a0huge\u00a0clash in Stuggart.<\/span><\/p>\n

Scotland Injuries and Suspensions to Consider<\/span><\/h3>\n

With Porteous out suspended and Kieron Tierney injured, we expect Scott McKenna will come into the defence.<\/span><\/p>\n
