- North Macedonia’s slump shows no sign of easing, with their winless run now stretching to ten matches (D5, L5) and their Nations League campaign beginning with two straight defeats.
- The biggest concern under Goce Sedloski is their complete lack of cutting edge: they’ve gone six games without scoring, and their last goal came in that 7–1 defeat to Wales.
- This is the fifth meeting between the sides, and after winning the first back in 2008, North Macedonia have failed to win any of the last three. They’re 7/2 with William Hill to finally break that run.
- Scotland’s new era under Sébastien Pocognoli has began with frustration rather than lift‑off, a goalless draw against Slovenia was followed up with a 3-0 thumping on home soil against Switzerland on Tuesday night.
- They did play the majority of Tuesday night with just ten players following Jack Hendry’s dismissal after just eleven minutes, the Scots have now gone four games themselves without finding the back of the net in all competitions.
- Even so, Scotland should fancy their chances of ending a three‑game Nations League goal drought, having lost just one of their last six away matches (W3, D2). They’re 3/4 favourites with William Hill to get Pocognoli’s first win on the board.
