Scotland vs Hungary - Euro 2024: Live score, team news and updates as Steve Clarke's side face must-win final group game, plus updates from Switzerland vs Germany

Julian Nagelsmann, Germany boss, speaking about the pitch on Saturday:

Speaking of the turf, I hope it's in better knick today because put it this way, it was pretty rubbish the last time it was used.

When was that you ask? When England drew with Denmark on Thursday (sorry to remind you).

From the very first minute, the Frankfurt pitch was cutting up, chunks of grass were flying out of the ground, and players were falling over.

Will that happen today, I guess we will have to wait and see?

It makes for good comedy, but the teams won’t be laughing if injuries occur.

First of all, how cool are Germany's jackets?

I mean, tracksuits in football are rarely fashionable these days, but the same cannot be said about this one.

Anyway, the Germans have arrived at the Waldstadion to face Switzerland and they seem in high spirits.

They can just enjoy themselves today.

Chris Sutton, It’s All Kicking Off! Co-host, on the BBC Sport website:

Now it's time to get excited!

Scotland's players have arrived at the Stuttgart Arena and are scouting out the turf.

I mean, they are all looking very serious, and game faces are well and truly on.

They know just how huge tonight is, you can see it in their eyes.

Ian Ladyman, Mail Sport Football Editor, at the Waldstadion:

It’s fair to say, Germany have been balling out this tournament.

They have scored seven goals already, only conceded one, and have qualified for the knockouts after winning their first two games.

If they beat Switzerland tonight, they will become the first host national to win all three group matches since the Netherlands in 2000.

I would back them to do so as well.

Stephen McGowan, Mail Sport, at the Stuttgart Arena:

Two Liverpool teammates are set to collide tonight.

Both Andy Robertson and Dominik Szoboszlai are used to linking up in red in search of three points.

Tonight they will have to put their friendship behind them, they are battling against each other on this occasion.

Both will captain their countries in Stuttgart, so it will be interesting to see how much they chat alongside each other in the tunnel beforehand.

I’m guessing not much, game faces will be on.

This is very good news.

Scotland and Liverpool legend Alan Hansen has been discharged from hospital following a serious illness.

Hansen is set to continue his recovery from home in what is brilliant news for the Scottish faithful before their big match.

Steve Clarke, Scotland boss, speaking on Saturday:

Let’s be honest, they just need to win.

If they draw, it is still technically plausible, but extremely unlikely. They would need lots of other results to go their way.

Scotland can’t let too much come down to chance. Win tonight and they will practically be through. Four points is usually enough for qualification as a third-placed side.

They can technically still finish second, but it would require Switzerland to lose to Germany and a six-goal swing.

So, a squeaky 1-0 will surely do, right?

At the moment they sit bottom of the third-placed team rankings. The top four will qualify, so that is the big aim for the Scots.

It’s certainly achievable.

Not to be outdone by the Germans, the Tartan Army are also enjoying themselves.

Thousands, and thousands of Scotland fans have travelled to Stuttgart for tonight's crunch match, and it looks like they are enjoying themselves.

The Scottish have arguably been the best supporters this tournament, their back of the team has been unmatched.

Just look at the sea of blue, it's a sight to behold.

Now this looks like a right laugh, doesn't it?

It's not surprising that the German party has already started ahead of their clash with Switzerland, I mean, they are already through.

I have seen so many videos circulating of this Saxophonist getting the vibe going in Frankfurt, and I must say, it makes me want to join in.

Just look at the atmosphere, it's incredible.

There is not as much on this game, but don’t let that fool you, it’s still set up to be a belter.

Both Germany and Switzerland have been playing some sublime stuff in recent times, both before and during the tournament.

The hosts have to be the favourites for this game, I mean, they have been in scintillating form so far this tournament.

In fact, they have my backing to go on and win the whole thing. Yep, that’s how good I think they are.

But Switzerland will give them a game, that’s for sure.

John McGinn, Scotland midfielder, speaking on Saturday:

Scotland have the chance to create history tonight.

No Scottish side has ever gotten out of the group stage of an international major tournament. Even the great 1978 side with Graeme Souness and Kenny Dalglish.

Well, Steve Clarke’s side can change that today. They take on a Hungary side yet to claim a point at these Championships.

If they win, it’s more than likely they will sail into the knockout stages on four points as one of the top four third-place sides.

Hungary are no slouch, though, led by Dominik Szoboszlai they were seen as a dark horse before the tournament, but it’s not gone as planned.

The confidence in the Scotland camp is high that they can get the job done under pressure.

The stakes are high – this one will be a cracker!

It’s a huge day for Group A, so how is it looking?

Well, we know Germany are already through, while Switzerland are in a very strong position to qualify in second on four points.

It’s third place where it’s all really happening. Scotland and Hungary are both vying for that spot in a bid to progress to the knockouts.

Yes, third doesn’t mean a team definitely go through, but it gives you a shot.

How are the nerves, Scotland fans?

It’s a monumental day for the Tartan Army as they look to make history by securing qualification to the knockout stages.

They face Hungary in Stuttgart, and the excitement for this one is through the roof. I’m nervous and I’m not even Scottish. The footballing world will be tuning in.

Hosts Germany – who have already qualified – are looking to finish the group stage in style against Switzerland in Frankfurt.

The Swiss are all but through, so this fixture doesn’t quite have the same weight of expectation upon it.

Both matches start at 8pm and we will have you covered for both. I simply cannot wait to get going on this one.

Let’s get this show on the road!
