Scotland and Ukraine have both been undefeated in their last five outings. Prior to two consecutive draws, the Tartan Army had a three-game winning run. Ukraine, meanwhile are coming off two consecutive wins, with the last one coming against German side Monchengladbach. Let’s take an in-depth look into both teams.
Scotland v Ukraine Prediction – Preview
Scotland
Scotland finished second in Group F the European World Cup Qualifiers (W7 D2 L1) with 23 points and a goal difference of 10 (17 scored, 7 conceded). On the final day of the group stages in November, they beat table-toppers Denmark 2-0, with John Souttar and Che Adams netting one in each half. Since then, the Steve Clarke-managed side have participated in two friendlies, each producing a draw. They were held to a 1-1 draw by Poland when Kryzsztof Piatek’s late penalty equalised Kieran Tierney’s 68th-minute goal. After that, they settled for a stalemate with Austria when Michael Gregoritsch and Alessandro Schopf second-half goals cancelled out Jack Hendry’s and John McGinn’s earlier netters. Could they regain their dominant touch again in front of the home crowd when they take on European sentimental favourite Ukraine?
Ukraine
Ukraine finished the group stage of the Qualifiers in second place at Group D (W2 D6 L0) with 12 points and a goal difference of 3 (11 scored, 8 conceded). On the last day of the group stage, they saw off Bosnia-Herzegovina 2-0 at the Billino Polje. Oleksandr Zinchenko broke the deadlock after 58 minutes and Artem Dovbyk netted on 79 minutes to double the lead. The Oleksandr Petrakov-managed side training for the playoff was disrupted by the Russian invasion; however, the nation recently saw action in a hybrid friendly against Bundesliga side Monchengladbach last 12 May at Borussia-Park. Mykhaylo Mudryk and Oleksandr Pikhalyonok each netted for the Blue and Yellow, who won 2-1 in an emotion-filled match. Could they channel this energy as they try to go for World Cup Qualification against the Tartan Army?
Scotland v Ukraine Prediction – Final Thoughts
This is shaping up to be an even match between two group runner-ups. Ukraine will be playing to give honour to their war-torn nation, and have a frontline that can easily attack the Scottish defence. However, Scotland have the advantage of home turf, and the Tartan Army will draw inspiration from a crowd hungry to see them back in the World Cup. In this regard, we see the home side pulling off a close win. Let’s take a look at the prediction.
