Scotland vs Switzerland betting preview

Let’s get a bit brutally honest here. Friday night was so unbelievably embarrassing being a Scotland supporter.

They were passive, lacklustre, shell-shocked and devoid of any sort of plan as Germany ran over the top of them – and Scotland failed to have a single shot on target.

The big players like Scott McTominay and John McGinn were completely anonymous and the entire side know full well they let themselves and the huge traveling support down.

It looked like a bunch of Champions League semi finalists against an English Championship side.

But that’s what it was in reality and all of that negativity can change in the blink of an eye with a strong performance and good result against Switzerland.

That’s the beauty with international, major tournament football. The chance to redeem yourself is just round the corner.

Switzerland ran out 3-1 winners over Hungary so will be a tough test. But they’re beatable and three points against them here would put Scotland in a superb position to qualify from the group.

The odds suggest they’re bang up against it though…

Tips for Scotland vs Switzerland

All-out attack

Zero shots on target against Germany. Maybe Scotland were just saving them for this one?

That might well explain what was witnessed on Friday and they’ll almost certainly offer considerably more this time around.

Our attacking players should get on the ball on awful lot more and there’s quality there to harm the Swiss back line.

Make up for it

He wasn’t the only one that had zero input on the game.

But given Scott McTominay’s role and status in this Scotland squad, more is definitely expected of him in a dark blue shirt.

He was the main man for goals in qualifying and it’d be no surprise should he step up and be the top dog for Clarke once more.
