There is a big UK derby set to take place as part of the Euro 2020 fixtures this summer with England and Scotland going head-to-head in their second games of the tournament.

Both teams will have something to prove, with Scotland looking to secure a rare competitive win against England, and England looking to build on their relative success from the last major tournament they were a part of – where they actually won a penalty shootout!

While England are expected to secure the three points here, we wouldn't rule Scotland out of staging an upset and we all know that England being the favourites to win a game doesn't mean that it will be an easy ride for them.

England v Scotland news

England: We expect Gareth Southgate to deploy one of his stronger line-ups here as, while it is a game England should win, he won't want to take any chances. Harry Kane will almost certainly be leading the charge with all the other key players, including the likes of Sterling, Rashford and Trippier likely to join him in the starting XI.

Scotland: No question here, Scotland will send out the strongest starting XI they have at their disposal for this because not only are they the underdogs in this match, but beating England will be a massive victory for the Scots and a huge boost if they make it further in the tournament.

Our prediction: England v Scotland

Predicting an England result is never easy, and even though years have now passed, we still get flashbacks to that dreaded Iceland match where we were all certain it would be a walk in the park – instead it was a bus ride back to the airport.

That being said, England should emerge from this as the winners of the game and while some may say it will be an easy match, we're not so sure and instead we imagine this to be a tight match with only a goal in it.

We definitely would not count Scotland out though and they could well be poised to be the team that gives England a big Euro upset.

Our prediction: England 1-0 Scotland (7/1 at bet365)
