"Scotland will seek the first of the two wins they are likely to need to reach the 2026 World Cup directly when Steve Clarke's side play their penultimate game in Group C away to Greece on Saturday. Denmark, who are in the automatic qualification spot in the group and have a six-goal superiority over Scotland, are heavy favourites to win at home to Belarus in their simultaneous fixture."
"Greece are without West Ham centre-back Konstantinos Mavropanos and Sporting forward Fotis Ioannidis, while PAOK midfielder Christos Zafiris is suspended. Australia-born former Hibernian midfielder Nectarios Triantis, who plays for Minnesota, has received his first call-up. "I understand that, especially in midfield, there are not many options," said manager Ivan Jovanovic. "That is one of the reasons for Triantis being called up, although it is not only that.""
