Scotland and Ukraine will both be looking to keep their World Cup dreams alive when they meet at Hampden Park on Wednesday in the play-offs of the World Cup qualifiers.

The winner will earn the chance to face Wales for a place at Qatar 2022, which takes place in November and December.

Victory in both games would make Steve Clarke’s side the first Scotland team to go to a World Cup since France 1998 but the manager will be keeping the players’ focus firmly on getting past Wednesday’s opponents before they can dare to dream about that.

The Scots may feel as though the will of the rest of the world is against them given what has been going on in Ukraine this year.

Indeed, Oleksandr Petrakov and his team will be keen to provide a bright moment for their compatriots in what has been such a difficult period.

Our prediction: Scotland v Ukraine

Delayed due to the events in Ukraine, this is set to be a World Cup qualifier play-off game that is unlike any other that has come before it.

On a purely footballing basis, however, it’s hard to look past a Scotland victory. Clarke’s side has been gathering momentum during the qualifying campaign and you’d back them to book their place in the game against Wales later on in June.

Hampden Park is going to be a significant advantage for the Scots and they will be determined to make the most of it.

Our prediction: Scotland 2-0 Ukraine (9/1 at Bet365)
