Latest Belarus vs Scotland football prediction
Belarus struggled in their Group C match against Greece on Friday night, conceding four goals in the first half alone, and were 5-0 down in the 61st minute before German Barkovskiy came off the bench to score a consolation goal.
Coach Carlos Alos's team has conceded nine goals in just two games, a worrying sign. However, they had a streak of three consecutive wins earlier this year, scoring a total of 11 goals.
Belarus have never qualified for the World Cup, so they are hoping to make history. They have also never made it to the Euros, finishing fourth in qualifying for Euro 2024.
The last meeting between the two sides was in 2005, when Belarus won 1-0 in a World Cup qualifier, but Scotland have the edge in the head-to-head record with two wins to Belarus' one.
Scotland will be confident after a goalless draw with Denmark in their previous game, with Steve Clarke's side taking a point and now aiming to take their tally to four.
Scotland have not been to the World Cup since 1998, so every qualifying match is significant. They have never made it past the group stage in this tournament.
In addition, Scotland was eliminated in the group stage at the last two Euros, but just winning a ticket to the World Cup next summer would be a great success.
Under Clarke, Scotland have two wins, two losses and a draw in 2025. They have five more games before the end of the year, including clashes with Greece and Belarus in October.
Scotland will face Greece and Denmark in November, with their results in this group promising to be interesting, especially after Greece's impressive performance in their opening game against Belarus.
