SCOTLAND are hoping a helping hand from UEFA will land them three Nations League points on Saturday.
Steve Clarke’s men looked ring rusty as they were held by Israel on Friday then were shocked to hear the next game in Czech Republic had been called off.
However, UEFA have ordered it to go ahead after Tomas Soucek and Patrik Schick came in contact with coaching staff who tested positive for Covid.
A shadow side will line up in Olomouc with no players from Slavia Prague, Sparta Prague and Viktoria Plzen involved.
Clarke’s planning to face a side playing the same system as the one that beat Slovakia 3-1 but in reality he’s no idea what he will be against.
The Scots have moved from 5-2 to odds on at 5-6 with betfair but most bookies have delayed pricing up the game. You can have 3-1 on the Czechs as well the draw.
Scotland aren’t likely to make many changes with Lyndon Dykes again leading the line but on the road his chances could be limited.
Ryan Christie netted the penalty goal against Israel and has now played a part in Scotland’s previous seven games – two goals and five assists.
There are no first-scorer prices yet but I’d consider Christie or Dykes.
Last time we played in the Czech Rep it was 1-0 to the hosts and goals could be in short supply again.
Under 2.5 goals looks a good shout at 20-21 with betfair while under 1.5 is 13-5.
