Scotland vs Brazil Prediction & Betting Tips | 24 June 2026

Match Preview

Hard Rock Stadium is set to host a crucial Group C encounter where Scotland lock horns with Brazil in the final group game. Following a disappointing 1-0 defeat to Morocco, Scotland's prospects look bleak, and we're forecasting a 2-1 victory for the visitors. Steve Clarke's side found it difficult to fashion significant chances in their previous outing and face another stern test against Brazil. On a more positive note, Kieran Tierney is likely to be fit to play, having recovered from a knock sustained against Morocco. As ever, Scott McTominay, the Napoli midfielder, will be a key figure for Scotland. Brazil, on the other hand, appear intent on securing their qualification after a convincing 3-0 triumph over Haiti in their second fixture. Matheus Cunha was instrumental in that win, netting twice, and he's expected to start again. With Raphinha unavailable due to injury, Igor Thiago is anticipated to spearhead the attack, freeing up Cunha to play from a wider position. The Selecao have netted 26 times in their last ten outings and have consistently found the back of the net during that period. Carlo Ancelotti's charges average 2.6 goals per game and boast the firepower to challenge any defence. Brazil possess superior attacking talent and enter this match in stronger form. Consequently, an Away Win looks like a solid proposition, as do Brazil netting Over 1.5 goals and a total of Over 2.5 goals in the match (Brazil's recent ten games have averaged 3.7 goals). This World Cup 2026 fixture is scheduled for Wednesday 24 June 2026, kicking off at 23:00.
