Scotland vs Denmark predictions and betting tips for the international friendly on Tuesday 29th March including a correct score prediction and BTTS tip.
Scotland host Denmark at Hampden Park on Tuesday night with both sides looking to make it two wins out of two, and I have three football tips for this international friendly.
Betting Preview: Scotland vs Denmark
Neither side managed to qualify for Euro 2016, Scotland finished fourth in Group D behind Germany, Poland and Republic of Ireland as they became the only home nation not to qualify for this summers' tournament. Denmark went one better and made the play-offs, but were narrowly beaten on aggregate by Sweden. Still, with the 2018 World Cup qualifiers coming up next season, this game provides both managers with an opportunity to build for the future.
Both sides started this international break well. Scotland travelled to Prague to take on Czech Republic and came away with a fine 1-0 win to make it four games unbeaten while Denmark recorded a 2-1 win at the MCH Arena to Iceland.
Scotland Team News
Scotland boss Gordon Strachan named separate squads for the friendlies against the Czechs and the Danes, only Gordon Greer, Charlie Mulgrew, Steven Whittaker, Steven Fletcher and the scorer of the only goal in Prague Ikechi Anya were named in both. Fletcher and Whittaker both missed that win but are available for this one. Shaun Maloney has been called up, Scott Bain has been retained after David Marshall had to withdraw from the squad with pneumonia and Paul Caddis, who made his debut against the Czechs, has been kept on also.
Denmark Team News
New Denmark coach Age Hareida named a number of British based players in his squad and they're all likely to feature here. Christian Eriksen, Jores Okore, Lasse Vibe, Jonas Knudsen and Erik Sviatchenko could all play a part, though Kasper Schmeichel may not be risked after pulling out of training as a precaution.
Scotland vs Denmark Predictions
Denmark have the more talented squad on paper, but this will be a tough game for them. Norwegian Hareida wasn't a popular choice when he was announced as Morten Olsen's successor, and he has a lot of work to do to win the Danish fans over. The likes of Eriksen and Nicklas Bendtner haven't performed well for their country of late and I think on home turf Scotland will have enough cause the visitors problems. With an almost completely different squad from the game in Prague, players on the fringe of regular call ups have been given the opportunity to impress and I fancy them to do well. Still, with the Scots up against the strong centre half pair of Daniel Agger and Simon Kjaer I doubt they'll have enough to win the game. For my first Scotland vs Denmark prediction I think a draw is on the cards here, get on it with Sky Bet at 11/5.

A draw for me, and a score draw at that. Scotland have only failed to score once in their 14 games, and whilst Denmark's scoring record isn't as impressive they still have quality going forward and will cause Strachan's men problems. My next football prediction for Scotland vs Denmark is for both teams to score with William Hill at 21/20.
For my final football tip, I'm going for a correct score prediction for Scotland vs Denmark. There won't be many goals in this, the best odds you'll find for under 2.5 goals is 11/17 which is why I've left that bet well alone, and I think a 1-1 draw sounds pretty likely. Get on this to finish 1-1 with Bet Victor who are offering 11/2.
