Scotland v Brazil LIVE: World Cup history on the line as Tartan Army prepare for nervy Group C finale

Scotland will aim to pull off perhaps the biggest result in their history as they bid to shock World Cup icons Brazil and qualify for the knockout stages of the tournament for the very first time.

It’s already been a memorable tournament off the pitch for the Tartan Army. And on it, despite defeat to Morocco last time out, Scotland’s opening victory against Haiti ensures their Group C fate is still in their hands.

Scotland have never beaten Brazil, but a first victory would take Steve Clarke’s side through to the last-32. A draw would also likely do it, while a narrow defeat, perhaps by one goal, may also be good enough for progress.

A Scotland defeat, however, would leave the Tartan Army with a nervy wait to see they will go through as one of the eight-best third-ranked teams, a quirk of the new 48-team format that has already brought some controversy.
