Scotland's opening game at Euro 2024 will be broadcast live on terrestrial television.
STV has announced they will showcase the opening game of the European Championships in Germany.
And that of course features Steve Clarke's side up against the host nation on June 14.
STV will also show England’s final Group game against Slovenia and will have picks one, two and three of the Round of 16, as well as first pick of the semi-finals.
STV has secured joint rights for the Final with the BBC, which has also announced plans to show Scotland’s Group games against Switzerland (19 June) and Hungary (23 June) and England’s first two Group games against Serbia (16 June) and Denmark (20 June).

Bobby Hain, Managing Director of Broadcast at STV, said: “As if the excitement of Scotland qualifying for another European Championship isn’t enough, it’s fantastic to know that Scotland fans will be able to enjoy every nail-biting minute of their opening match exclusively on STV and STV Player.
“Having the opportunity to show Scottish sport free-to-air on our channel is hugely important to us, and we know the country will be united in front of their TVs to watch the national team’s Euro 2024 journey, as well as every other thrilling moment of the tournament, next summer.”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
