Scotland vs Slovakia: How to watch Euro 2025 qualifier, TV details, what channel, team news, tickets

Scotland Women take on Slovakia tonight as they return to Hampden Park in Euro 2025 qualification action. Here’s how you can watch the game live.

Scotland Women return to their Hampden Park home tonight looking to pick up their first three Euro 2025 qualifying points as they host Slovakia in Glasgow.

Pedro Martinez Losa’s side enter the game in poor form after Friday’s 0-0 draw against Serbia made it a full 16 months without a competitive win. However, they do enter tonight’s game as favourites as they look to navigate a path to next summer’s tournament in Switzerland.

Placed in Group B2 of the new look qualifying format, Scotland have been pitted against Slovakia, Serbia and Israel but even at this early stage in proceedings, the game feels like a must win with pressure piling on their Spanish head coach.

Without a competitive win in 16 months, fan frustration has amplified on Martinez Losa though he insists he has “no concerns” over his side’s form and even suggested there’s an agenda against him.

“The reality is that we have played 17 games since the play-off defeat to the Republic of Ireland,” said Martinez Losa. “After the World Cup, we were in the position that we should have been, we beat Austria who have a higher ranking than us and then we played a second game against the Republic of Ireland and we lost.

“We lost five against a team second in the world and a team seventh in the world. That is two games and we had a game against Iceland, also who have a higher ranking than us and we were also competitive. That is why it is not a concern for me. You can ask the question as many times as you like but when we arrive to the Nations League nobody highlighted that we had a run of seven games unbeaten.

“I don’t know why, it just depends on the agendas that are there. Now it looks like this is the only question you want me to respond to.” Want to catch every minute of Scotland Women’s first Euro 2025 qualifying clash at Hampden?
