Meeting statistics

Current form and & playstyle: Haiti

After more than half a century, Haiti will make its second appearance in a World Cup final in 2026. In a campaign that required the Haitians to play home games 500 miles away due to the country’s continuous hostilities, a 2-0 victory over Nicaragua in Group C’s third round of the CONCACAF qualifications last November guaranteed their spot in the United States, Mexico, and Canada.

Sébastien Migné, a Frenchman, will command one of the competition’s least seasoned teams. He might be able to rely on a few well-known players, though, as Wilson Isidor of Sunderland is expected to lead the line and Jean-Ricner Bellegarde of Wolves will play in midfield. Among them are a former Coventry City, Oldham Athletic, and St Mirren player, Duckens Nazon—Haiti’s record goal scorer—and a veteran goalkeeper and captain, Johny Placide.

Current form and & playstyle: Scotland

In a UEFA qualification group that included Denmark, Greece, and Belarus, Steve Clarke’s team qualified with four victories, one tie, and just one defeat. Scotland scored 13 goals and allowed seven in the six games, most notably defeating the Danes 4-2 in the last match to guarantee automatic qualification for its first World Cup in 28 years.

Scotland hasn’t yet announced its 26-man roster; however, barring any unanticipated events, we can expect to see many mainstays. Crucial to their country are midfield maestros John McGinn and Scott McTominay, as well as captain Andy Robertson and center-back Scott McKenna. However, as Craig Gordon struggles to regain fitness in time, the No. 1 shirt appears to be up for grabs, with Angus Gunn prepared to step in if the 43-year-old is unable.

Head-to-head

Scotland and Haiti will play each other for the first time.

Match analytics

The Scots appear ready to take on one of the biggest minnows in the competition in North America after winning their WC qualification group ahead of Denmark. Even though Scotland’s record at major events isn’t particularly impressive, it showed enough perseverance and clinical edge in front of goal during qualification to secure a comfortable opening victory while maintaining a clean sheet.
