Finland Women and Scotland Women would be preparing for their respective UEFA Nations League campaigns in September as they take on each other in a women's international friendly on Tuesday.
Having endured horrid outings in the UEFA Women's Championship and Women's World Cup qualification games the last time around, Finland are currently on a six-game winning run following a 2-0 win over Iceland last Friday.
Whereas Scotland haven't lost in their last five games after their 3-0 win over Northern Ireland at the weekend. They finished third in the 2023 Pinatar Cup, which included Iceland, Wales, and the Philippines, after failing to qualify for the Women’s World Cup.
Here GOAL brings you everything you need to know about how to watch, including TV channel, streaming details and more.
