UEFA Nations League action returns to Hampden Park this week, with Scotland taking on North Macedonia in a Group B1 clash on Friday night. The Tartan Army won the reverse fixture 2-0, and we are going with them to take another three points off the Lynxes here as our match prediction. 

After suffering relegation from League A last season, Scotland’s hopes of an immediate return to the top flight are now hanging by a thread after losing to Slovenia in their last match. With only four points from as many games, Sébastien Pocognoli’s team can only reach the promotion playoffs at best, but anything less than a win here guarantees that they will finish outside the top two. 

As for the Lions, relegation back to Group C looks almost inevitable and will be confirmed if they lose here. Goce Sedloski’s side have already lost all four matches to date and cannot be promoted. Back-to-back wins may only get them to third, but that will also require the Scots losing both games this month. Let’s get into the key stats!

Scotland - North Macedonia: Form Analysis

After picking up their only win of the Nations League against North Macedonia (2-0), Scotland’s automatic promotion hopes were ended with a 2-1 defeat to Slovenia at this very venue last month. 

The aforementioned victory is the only one the Tartan Army have managed in six since their World Cup opener against Haiti (D1 L4). They failed to score in four games and have conceded nine goals during this period. 

This week’s hosts have also lost four of their last five home games, but they have never lost to their upcoming opponents on home soil, winning one and drawing one of their two previous encounters.  

Can North Macedonia find their first goal in the 2026-27 Nations League this week?

Indeed, the Lynxes have not just lost every match in this competition to date, but they have also failed to score a single goal, while conceding 10 times across their four matches in Group B1. 

The Lions are now winless in their last 12 matches across all competitions (D5 L7), dating back to a 5-0 victory over 207th-ranked Liechtenstein in a World Cup qualifier back in September last year. 

The visitors are also winless in their last nine away games and have failed to score a goal in over 550 minutes on their travels since netting a consolation in a 7-1 thumping by Wales last November.

Scotland & North Macedonia Squad Analysis

Pocognoli can look forward to the return of two key players who missed last month’s matches. The first is Che Adams, who has netted four times in nine appearances for Torino this season and may get the nod to lead the line ahead of Oli McBurnie. 

The bigger boost for the Tartan Army and one that should almost definitely step straight back into the starting lineup is Scott McTominay, who had to undergo a procedure to correct a "mild benign arrhythmia" after the World Cup. 

Kieran Tierney is also back in the national team but will likely have to share minutes with Andy Robertson, who will surpass Sir Kenny Dalglish to become Scotland’s most-capped player if he features in both games this month. 

Kenny McLean and Scott McKenna have been left out through injury! 

In an attempt to end the group stage positively, Sedloski has recalled the trio of Nikola Serafimov, Imran Fetai, and Stefan Despotovski to the national team for their final two matches this month. 

Despite only scoring once for his club side Panathinaikos in the Greek Super League this season, Elmin Rastoder is expected to retain his spot in attack, with Konyaspor’s Enis Bardhi operating in the number 10 role.
