Scotland entertain Liechtenstein at Hampden Park this Tuesday knowing that nothing less than an emphatic will win be acceptable. Understandably Scotland start as hot favourites to win the match with odds of 1/12 offered by Ladbrokes while the draw is a 9/1 option with the highly unlikely Liechtenstein win at 22/1.
Scotland v Liechtenstein LIVE on Sky Sports 3 at 2000 on 7th September
Scotland began their qualifying campaign last week with a 0-0 draw against a stubborn Lithuania team where it has to be said that it was 2 points lost for Craig Levein’s men rather than an away point gained. They will want to make amends for that in this match, particularly as their only real chance of qualifying is as runners up in the group, which is sure to be won by Spain.
Levein is likely to make changes for the match bringing in Kris Boyd to partner Kenny Miller up front, fit again James McFadden and Graham Dorrans are also likely to start, although he looks likely to lose the services of Steven Fletcher, Scott Brown, Lee Wallace and Kevin MacNaughton. Captain Darren Fletcher will be winning his 50th cap.
Kris Boyd and Kenny Miller have been made joint 9/4 favourites to score the opening goal of the match, although considering the standard of opposition it might be worth backing either one of them or even both of them to score a hat trick for which they both have odds of 12/1 with Ladbrokes.
Although it looks highly likely that Scotland will win this match they should exercise some caution as Liechtenstein have pulled off one or two surprise results in the recent past. For instance they drew away 1-1 with Iceland in a friendly last month and they achieved the same score against Finland in Helsinki in a world cup qualifier a year ago. Admittedly they were blown away by Spain in their Group I opener last week; losing 0-4 at home, but nevertheless they do have some semblance of recent good form in the book .

Liechtenstein coach, Hans Peter Zaugg appears to have a full strength squad available to him which means that their best known player, Mario Frick, now aged 35 will be winning his 94th cap and will be hoping to add to his 14 goals that he has scored for his country. Frick in fact has odds of 6/1 from ladbrokes. com to be on the scoresheet in this match.
There is little doubt that Scotland will win this match but fans and punters alike should not necessarily expect a goal-fest. They have only conceded three or more goals in just five of their last twelve matches and they were against the likes of Spain, Germany, Portugal, Russia and Croatia. We therefore will back a Scotland win by a scoreline of 3-0 which has odds of 5/1, once again available from Ladbrokes Online.
Selection 1: Scotland to win 3-0 @ 5/1 (£25 bet wins £125)
Selection 2: Kenny Miller to score a hat trick @ 12/1 (£25 bet wins £300)
