Match background • Germany's record in 15 games against Scotland is W6 D5 L4 (W3 D2 L2 at home – W1 D3 L2 in Scotland). Those meetings include two encounters at final tournaments; a 2-1 win for West Germany at the 1986 World Cup in Mexico and a 2-0 win for the reunited Germany at the 1992 UEFA European Championship in Sweden. • Germany have yet to lose in six competitive games against Scotland. Their record in those matches is W4 D2 L0, both draws coming in Glasgow. • Germany last lost to Scotland in a friendly in Bremen on 28 April 1999, Don Hutchison (66) scoring the only goal for Craig Brown's Scotland against Erich Ribbeck's home side. • Germany are unbeaten in 17 competitive games (W15 D2) since a 2-1 loss to Italy in the semi-finals of UEFA EURO 2012. They have not lost in 32 World Cup and European Championship qualifying games (W28 D4) since a 3-0 home defeat by the Czech Republic in a 17 October 2007 UEFA EURO 2008 qualifier. • Scotland won their last two competitive away games, beating Croatia (1-0) and the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (2-1) in their final 2014 World Cup qualifiers. • The sides' most recent encounters were in UEFA EURO 2004 qualifying. At Hampden Park on 7 June 2003, Kenny Miller (68) struck to earn a Scotland side coached by German Berti Vogts to a 1-1 draw against Rudi Völler's Germany. Fredi Bobic (22) had put the visitors in front. • Bobic (25) again scored the opener in the return game in Dortmund on 10 September 2003, Michael Ballack (50) making it 2-0 before Neil McCann (60) made the final score 2-1. • In 15 UEFA age-group competition games against Scotland, Germany's record is W7 D4 L4. • In 48 meetings in UEFA club competitions, German sides' record against Scottish opponents is W27 D11 L10. 4 Germany - Scotland Sunday 7 September 2014 - 20.45CET (20.45 local time) Match press kit BVB Stadion Dortmund, Dortmund Squad list Germany Current season Overall Qual.
