Scotland’s manager Steve Clarke is already looking ahead to the next round of World Cup qualifying after a solid start, with four points from their first two matches. Scotland’s recent 2-0 win over Belarus in Hungary followed a hard-fought draw against Denmark, keeping them level with the Danes in Group C. Their next match will be against Greece on October 9 at Hampden, with Belarus visiting just three days later. The team’s solid defensive foundation, including three consecutive clean sheets, has been a key factor in their performance. Clarke emphasized the importance of clean sheets as a basis for success, and although the attacking play hasn’t been flashy, Scotland has been effective when it matters. Despite Greece’s disappointing 3-0 defeat to Denmark, Scotland is wary of their potential, having faced a tough challenge in March’s Nations League play-offs. The Tartan Army, however, remains optimistic about their prospects and will aim to secure key wins at home to maintain their momentum in the campaign.
