Scotland will take on Belarus at Hampden Park in the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers on Sunday evening. The Tartan Army are in second place in Group C, while the White Wings are bottom of the standings after three games. Let’s get into the match prediction!
Scotland have not qualified for a World Cup since 1998, but they’ve made a positive start to these qualifiers, currently level on seven points (W2 D1) with group leaders Denmark at the halfway point.
The Tartan Army came back from a goal down to beat Greece 3-1 at this venue on Thursday night. Notably, that was the first goal they conceded in this competition.
While the hosts’ home record has not been the greatest of late (W2 D1 L3), it is worth mentioning that four of those matches were against League A opposition in the Nations League.
Meanwhile, Belarus have never been to a World Cup, and with no points on the board in this competition, their hopes of reaching the 2026 edition could come to an end if they lose here.
The White Wings suffered a 6-0 demolition at the hands of Denmark at home on Thursday and have now conceded 13 goals in their three matches in this competition, while scoring once.
The visitors have won two of their last three away games, but those were against Azerbaijan and Tajikistan. They lost the reverse fixture against this opponent 2-0 last month.

Our Scotland vs Belarus Prediction
Scotland will be beaming with confidence coming into this match off the back of a solid performance against Greece, which kept them level on points with Denmark, who are likely to be their main competition for top spot.
Belarus, on the other hand, are now on the verge of elimination after their 6-0 drubbing on Thursday. The visitors lost 2-0 to this opponent in the reverse fixture, and we feel they will struggle to get on the scoresheet in this one as well. Our Scotland vs Belarus prediction is Scotland wins & BTTS (NO).
