We’re excited for the return of UEFA EURO 2024 and the lead-up to what we hope will be some of the best football this year. Scotland will officially begin their build-up to UEFA EURO 2024 when they take on the Netherlands and Northern Ireland in March friendlies next year. Netherlands v Scotland takes place in The Netherlands on Friday, 22 March 2024 but the main event here is Scotland v Northern Ireland on Tuesday, 26 March 2024 in Hampden Park, Glasgow. If you’re attending a couple, a group, a team or a family, PREMIER SUITES Glasgow offers the ideal accommodation for sports fixtures in Glasgow. Our flexible, comfortable spaces are ideal for pre-match wind-up or post-match celebrations (we hope!).
Scotland V Northern Ireland in Glasgow
Steve Clarke’s side will first travel to the Netherlands to take on the 1988 European Champions in a 7.45 pm UK time kick-off on Friday, 22 March in Johan Cruyff Arena in Amsterdam. This will be Scotland’s first EUROs test and we’re expecting a riveting match from a worthy opponent. Hampden Park will then host its first men’s international of the year when Northern Ireland visits on Tuesday, 26 March, with kick-off at 7.45 pm. These fixtures in March will serve as the first step in the squad’s preparation for the EURO 2024 finals in June, where they will take on hosts Germany in the opening game of the tournament, as well as Hungary and Switzerland in Group A.
Scotland have enjoyed a positive record against Northern Ireland over the years, with 17 victories and nine defeats among the 36 occasions they have paired. The sides last met in 2015 in a friendly at Hampden Park, Scotland winning 1-0 thanks to a late Christophe Berra goal. We’re hoping for a continuation of this run of skill and good luck against the Green and White Army.
