Gibraltar take on the visitors Scotland in a Friendly International match. The match will be played on Monday, June 3rd at Estádio Algarve (Faro/Loulé)
Gibraltar is one of the weakest national teams in Europe. They can only compete on relatively equal terms with teams like Andorra, Liechtenstein, and San Marino. Against all other opponents, the Fifty-Fourth suffer heavy defeats. If the team concedes fewer than four or five goals, it can be considered a success. Yes, they lose narrowly to teams like Malta and Lithuania, with scores like 0-1. But recently, they conceded four goals against both Ireland and Wales, five against Greece, six against the Netherlands, and a whopping 0-14 against France.

I believe the Scottish team, who are preparing for their opening match against Germany in the upcoming Euro, will score at least four goals against such a weak opponent. The British will not face similar opponents in the tournament, so the Tartan Army will likely take this opportunity to entertain their fans with an attacking display, even in a friendly match. Scotland has significantly improved in recent years, qualifying for their second consecutive European Championship. In the Euro 2024 qualifiers, they even competed with Spain for the top spot in their group for a while. The difference in class between the British and Gibraltar is enormous.
Gibraltar traditionally shows nothing of value, losing match after match without any fight. Switzerland has decided to test themselves against this modest opponent and delight their fans with an attacking performance. I believe the Swiss can win by at least 3-0. Hence, I am choosing to bet on a handicap of -3 in favor of the Scotland national team.
Prediction for the match: Scotland to win with -3.0 handicap.
