Scotland team guide

How did they get there: Qualifying at the expense of Czech Republic.

Manager: Angus McAllister.

Captain: Craig Borchers.

Euro highlights: None. This is their first tournament.

Euro legend: None.

Star players: Craig Wisniewski and John Jeffries. The FC London striker and the Glasgow FC defender have been great for their respective clubs as of late.

Strengths: ???

Weaknesses: ???

World ranking: 16th.

Our verdict: In a very tough group with Switzerland, Ireland and England in it, the Scots don't look like surviving. But if Wisniewski single-handedly did stuff, they might have a good chance.
