  1. Plenty at stake in Scotland’s group

    Germany v Switzerland (Sun, 20:00 BST)

    Much drier here in Frankfurt, thankfully.

    Yesterday I got caught in the most almighty deluge, which had water spilling through the gaps in the roof of the stadium and flooding corners of the pitch.

    The first two places in Group A will, realistically, be filled by Germany and Switzerland, who meet here on Sunday.

    Unless, that is, Germany beat the Swiss, Scotland beat Hungary and there's a six-goal swing.

    That would put the Scots second and guarantee them qualification. An extreme long shot, clearly...

    Because Stuttgart, like everywhere else, is soaking.

  3. Thinking caps at the ready

    Chats on the train to Stuttgart were akin to a casting call for a slot on Only Connect.

    The mind-bending conundrums on the BBC game show require a certain type of brain power. If only the Tartan Army would enter a team, they'd be a shoo-in.

    It seems pretty straightforward - touch wood - that a win against Hungary will be enough for Scotland to qualify somehow. It even makes me nervous typing that.

    But there may well be a scenario where two points get Steve Clarke's side through.

    It would be the first time it's ever been done in a Euros.

    Are we being pessimistic? Are we being realistic? Or are we just wasting time because we know Scotland may win and it doesn't matter?

    You decide...

  4. Scotland squad Stuttgart-bound

    The Scotland players were training in the sunshine in Garmisch-Partenkirchen earlier today.

    All were present and correct apart from Ryan Jack, who’s a still a bit under the weather, and of course Kieran Tierney.

    The squad were set to jump on the team bus and head up to Stuttgart mid-afternoon.

    Next stop: Stuttgart - hopefully it isn't the final one.

    We're one sleep away from what could potentially be the greatest day of our lives.

    It's 'matchday minus one'. Therefore, we'll be hearing from the Scotland camp at about 18:30 BST.

    In the meantime...
