Scotland vs Portugal Prediction & Betting Tips - UEFA Nations League

Prediction published on 15/10/2024, 11:35 by Devesh Jaganath in UEFA Nations League Predictions

Two sides with completely contrasting records in the UEFA Nations League will lock horns on Tuesday evening when Scotland take on Portugal at Hampden Park in Glasgow. The Tartan Army are bottom of League A Group 1 at the halfway point, while Os Navegadores are in pole position. Check out our match prediction below!

Scotland made the dream start when these two met on matchday two, with Scott McTominay opening the scoring for his side inside the first 10 minutes of play. However, Portugal’s class shone through in the second half with Bruno Fernandes and Cristiano Ronaldo both finding the net to overturn the scoreline and secure their team a 2-1 victory.

That win was Portugal's fourth in a row against the Scots, a record that extends all the way back to 1993, while they have not lost to this opponent in the last six, dating back over four decades. Let's jump into the key stats!

Scotland - Portugal: Form Analysis

While Scotland are yet to win a point in this competition, it has not been because they have played particularly poorly. The issue they have is a seeming inability to see out matches from good positions.

Against Poland in their opening match, the Tartan Army fought back from two goals down to level the game at 2-2, but conceded in stoppage time, losing the match 3-2.

Then, in their last two games against Portugal and Croatia, they took the lead in both matches but squandered their advantage and lost 2-1 in each.

As a result, Scotland are now on a four-match losing streak and winless in their last seven!

Meanwhile, Portugal have been in scintillating form in this competition and a win here will guarantee them a top-two finish, even if they lose the final two games of the group.

However, A Selecao will be aiming to maintain the top spot and continue building momentum leading up to the knockout rounds. So far they won all three of their games and scored two or more goals in each.

Excluding the European Championship, Portugal have won six of their last seven matches on the road, with a friendly loss to Slovenia back in March being the only smudge on their record.

Scotland & Portugal Squad Analysis

Scotland came away from their loss to Croatia unscathed and are expected to maintain a fairly similar setup to the one we saw last time out.

The one change that many fans have been asking for in recent times is to see Che Adams brought in to lead the line in place of Lyndon Dykes, with the former having made four goal contributions in his first seven league matches since joining Torino.

Liverpool’s Andrew Robertson is expected to don the armband again on Tuesday, and should he do so, he will also surpass Alex McLeish as Scotland’s fourth-most-capped player of all time.

Cristiano Ronaldo has scored in all three matches for Portugal in this year’s Nations League!

Indeed, CR7 is now up to 133 goals for A Selecao and is the joint-second-highest scorer in this competition, just one behind Slovenia’s talisman Benjamin Sesko.

Despite Goncalo Inacio withdrawing ahead of this month’s international fixtures, young Renato Veiga took up the defensive responsibility excellently in the last match, forming a solid combination alongside Ruben Dias.

Our Scotland vs Portugal Prediction

While Scotland have put on a few good performances in this competition, their inability to hold on to leads has cost them dearly. Additionally, they can ill-afford to give teams with the attacking strength that Portugal possesses too many chances without getting burnt.

CR7 and co will know that any victory here will put them firmly in the driver’s seat to reach the knockouts, and given their form in this competition, it’s hard to back against them. Our Scotland vs Portugal prediction: Portugal wins!
