What channel is Gibraltar v Scotland on? TV details, live stream and team news ahead of Euro 2024 friendly
All the viewing details for Scotland’s clash in Faro
Scotland play their first Euro 2024 warm-up match this evening when they take on Gibraltar in the southern Portuguese city of Faro.
Manager Steve Clarke and his players are fine-tuning their preparations for the European Championships, which begin on Friday, June 14. Scotland are in Group A alongside hosts Germany, Switzerland and Hungary and will take on Julian Nagelsmann’s team in the tournament curtain-raiser in less than two weeks in Munich. They then head to Cologne to face Switzerland on June 19 and then close off their pool-phase campaign against Hungary on June 23.
The match against Gibraltar is one of two pre-competition friendlies Scotland have in the diary. Finland come to Hampden on Friday night and while Clarke will be keen to get as many minutes as possible into his squad ahead of the Euros, he will also be hoping not to pick up any further injuries. Striker Lyndon Dykes has been forced to withdraw from the tournament due to an ankle injury picked up in training last week, while right-backs Aaron Hickey and Nathan Patterson, plus midfielder Lewis Ferguson, are also unvailable.
