"It [qualification] would be a massive achievement for everyone who's been involved in this journey so far. It's six massive games, six cup finals if you will. I think we go into it in a good place because we know how much we want it. We've got the experience of the Euros and the last qualifiers."
"A trip to Denmark offers the chance to make a real statement in a group that also includes Belarus and Greece. The Danes are the top seeds in the pool and any kind of result at Parken would enhance Scotland's chances of securing a top-two finish that would guarantee at least a playoff spot. That won't be straightforward though with Denmark having won 25 of their past 28 home games in all competitions (D1 L2), keeping 18 clean sheets in the process."
Scotland start World Cup qualifying with a match in Copenhagen aiming to end a 30-year finals absence. The group contains Denmark, Belarus and Greece, with Denmark as top seeds. Denmark's strong home form includes 25 wins from their last 28 matches and 18 clean sheets. Scotland carry Euro 2024 experience and face six decisive qualifying games viewed as 'cup finals' by players. Ryan Christie emphasises the squad's desire and experience. Denmark have recent World Cup pedigree, and coach Brian Riemer hopes striker Rasmus Hojlund regains form. Scotland suffer injuries to Tony Ralston and Kieran Tierney.
