Scotland vs Israel: TV channel, live stream, squad news & preview

Alex McLeish's side will qualify for the League C playoffs and will earn promotion if they pick up three points at Hampden

Scotland have worked themselves into a position whereby their Nations League fate is in their own hands when they face Israel at Hampden on Tuesday.

Alex McLeish’s side have no room for error, though. Despite two strong wins over Albania and a goal difference advantage over their visitors, their 2-1 defeat in Haifa last month means that the all-important head-to-head is against them.

With both teams locked on six points, Scotland must record their third win in four games to book a place in the playoffs, which would secure promotion and potentially open up a qualifying route to Euro 2020.
