There's little at stake in this Euro 2020 qualifier between Cyprus and Scotland. Cyprus are third in Group I, a point and a place above their opponents but neither will be finishing in the top two. This group has been dominated by Belgium and Russia. Cyprus may be third but they are 11 points behind second placed Russia. That means the Cypriots are already eliminated from the tournament but not their opponents. Scotland won their Nations League group and are assured a place in the play-offs.

It's not been a good group for Scotland who have only nine points from eight games. Their away form has seen them lose three times with no goals scored and 10 goals conceded. Their only win was a 2-0 victory in San Marino. They are concentrating now on building confidence for the play-offs and had a good 6-0 home win over San Marino in their last game.Scotland beat Cyprus 2-1 in the reverse fixture and their opponents have only managed four points from four home games, the only win being against San Marino. Scotland have more to play for in this game and can be backed to win or draw the match.
