Haiti will make a long-awaited return to the World Cup finals when they take on Scotland, ending a remarkable 52-year absence from football's biggest stage. However, we predict a 3-1 win for Steve Clarke's men as they impressed in the qualifiers for the showpiece tournement. The Caribbean nation heads into the tournament full of confidence after a stunning 4-0 victory over New Zealand in their final warm-up match. Franzdy Pierrot and Duckens Nazon are expected to lead the charge as Haiti look to continue their impressive momentum. Recent statistics suggest they are capable of causing problems, having won four of their last ten matches while averaging 1.5 goals per game. Scotland arrive with greater tournament experience and plenty of quality in key areas. Napoli star Scott McTominay is expected to play a leading role, while captain Andy Robertson and midfielder John McGinn should also start. However, Steve Clarke's side suffered a major setback with Billy Gilmour ruled out of the World Cup following a serious knee injury. Scotland have won six of their last ten matches, scoring an average of 2.1 goals per game. Their matches have averaged 3.1 goals, highlighting their attacking intent, while an expected goals figure of 1.50 per game underlines their offensive threat. Given Scotland's quality and experience at this level, Away Win should be considered, alongside Both Teams to Score and Over 2.5 goals (Scotland's matches average 3.1 goals, suggesting an open contest).
