CZR vs SCO Dream11 Prediction: Czech Republic take on Scotland in the second UEFA Nations League matches on Monday evening in Olomouc, despite the home side threatening to pull out of the match. The Czechs announced on Friday they did not intend to fulfil the fixture due to coronavirus concerns, but UEFA say the Group B contest will go ahead as planned. Scotland still have work to do if they are to take part in the rescheduled tournament, having finished third in their qualifying group to set up a playoff with Israel. They have already a trial run of sorts ahead of that huge match, having played out a 1-1 draw with the same opponents at Hampden Park in Friday’s Nations League clash.

Czech Republic Team News
This will be their first game in a while after the COVID-19 crisis paused all pending fixtures. While you may think Czech Republic isn’t a major driving force in football they certainly have some good players. It would be unfair to write them off in a match like this, especially donning the likes of Jakub Jankto and Patrik Schick. Their latest game was a 1-0 loss to Bulgaria which was a very unfortunate game for them.
Injury update, unavailability
The Czech’s may field a completely different side in this match to the one used against Slovakia.
CZR Playing 11 & Subs (probable)
Tomas Vaclik, Jakub Brabec, Ondrej Celustka, Tomas Kalas, Ales Mateju, Borek Dockal, Jakub Jankto, Tomas Soucek, Adam Hlozek, Michal Krmencik, Patrik Schick
Scotland Team News
Scotland have seen an up and down stop-start in their region when it came to football. The surge of some players’ involvement with their teams however, saw new call-ups and more chances for a renewal of tactics. Lynden Dykes – originally Australian – chose to represent Scotland and this will most likely mark his first feat with the national side. The introduction of target man Dykes might give the team a new way to play – but at the same time familiar faces such as Arsenal’s Tierney and Liverpool’s Robertson make the grade as usual, prompting better wing play from the defense.
Injury update, unavailability
They don’t have a major injury or suspension issue before coming into this match.
SCO Playing 11 & Subs (probable)
David Marshall; Kieran Tierney, Scott McKenna, Andrew Robertson; Ryan Jack, Scott McTominay, Callum McGregor, James Forrest; Ryan Christie, Lyndon Dyke, Oliver Burke
Let’s take a look at the dream 11 prediction for today’s football match
Goalkeeper: Marshall
Defenders: Cooper, Brabec, Robertson, Celustka
Midfielders: Armstrong, Paterson, Dockal
Forwards: Schick, Forrest, Burke
Patrik Schick: The Dutch striker could be a huge pick for this match as he had a wonderful season for RB Leipzig in Bundesliga .
Oliver Burke: The Scottish right winger could be an absolute threat for the opponent due to his speed and agility. He could be a good captain choice.
James Forrest : The Celtic attacker is a real threat upfront and he has scored five goals for his country in 34 games.
Borek Dockal: The midfielder’s ability to control the midfield and turnover possession makes him a must have pick in this aspect. He scored 3 goals for his country.
Who will win NED vs ITA Today Match Prediction Football
Czech Republic earned a straightforward success against Slovakia in their opening Nations League contest and they will look to build on that as they host Scotland. The Scots were held to a draw with Israel but they will be disappointed that they were unable to see that game out having led by a goal approaching the final 15 minutes of the contest. However, they would take a point from this trip with the Czechs winning their last four competitive matches on home soil and the hosts are likely to be too good in this one. We predict a 2-1 win for the hosts in today match prediction.
