Scotland vs Finland Prediction and Match Preview

Scotland vs Finland Prediction

Finland tried their best to find a spot in the upcoming Euro campaign but failed in the semis against Wales, conceding 4-1. They have played a couple of friendlies post qualifiers and has sealed one win and conceded a defeat against Estonia and Portugal respectively.

Their upcoming friendly is scheduled against an in-form Scottish side, who has claimed a spot at the Euro Cup even after competing in Group A which had Spain and Norway alongside. They will enter this match following a 2-0 victory against Gibraltar in their latest friendly match.

• Scotland can also rely on the head-to-head tradition since they won all the four clashes against Finland.
• The Scottish offense netted 8 goals in those four matches while allowing just 2.
• They have not met at this venue since 1994 and the last meeting saw Scotland sealing a 1-0 win.

Moving on, Scotland have a strong form at home for the past several months. They have conceded just two defeats in the last 10 home matches and won seven in that period. It is noteworthy that their last four home wins saw their defensive line keeping a clean sheet. Also, their last three home wins had a 2-0 score line.

Meanwhile, Finland was winless in six of the last eight road trips and lost five in the stretch. Also, the Finnish side have a poor offensive line and has failed to score in the last two head-to-head match-ups against Scotland. In that case, we like to start with Scotland to win 2-0 for this match.

Additionally, we can see Scotland scoring at least one in the second half of nine of the last 10 home matches. We can see Finland allowing at least one in the second half of the last four away matches too. In that case, we like to suggest Scotland to score over 0.5 goals I the second half as the second pick for this match.
