Euro 2024 gets underway on Friday night as the hosts Germany take on Scotland as part of Group A at the Allianz Arena in Munich. 

The Germans are one of the favourites heading into the tournament given that the competition is taking place on home soil, but all is not rosy in Julian Nagelsmann’s garden. There has been a lot of turmoil surrounding Die Mannschaft in recent years having been eliminated from several tournaments earlier than expected.

Huge results against France and the Netherlands recently gave fans of the team a big boost ahead of the Euros, but that has died down again following their performances against Ukraine and Greece in their pre-tournament friendlies.

Nagelsmann’s team will be fully up for their opening game against Scotland as they will want to get their Euro 2024 campaign off to the perfect start in front of a full house in Munich.
