Head to Head

Haiti and Scotland will meet for the first time in a competitive match.

Haiti Form

Haiti achieved mixed fortunes in two warm-up matches before the start of the FIFA World Cup. They thrashed New Zealand 4-0 before losing 2-1 to Peru at the beginning of June.

In March, Les Grenadiers lost 1-0 to Tunisia and drew 1-1 with Iceland in back-to-back international friendlies.

Le Rouge et Bleu have won two of their last five matches, with two defeats and one draw. They scored eight goals and conceded four.

Haiti overcame the odds to secure a place at this year's finals after securing a victory on the final matchday of Group C in the third round of CONCACAF qualifying. However, they will have to play well to beat Scotland, as their opponents have been scoring plenty of goals lately.

Scotland Form

Scotland will be pleased with how their preparation went in the lead-up to the 2026 FIFA World Cup after thumping Curacao 4-1 and Bolivia 4-0 in two international friendlies at the beginning of June.

Before those performances, the Boys in Blue did not have much success in two friendlies played in March, losing 1-0 to Japan and 1-0 to the Ivory Coast.

The Tartan Army have won three of their last five fixtures, with two defeats. They scored 12 goals and conceded five.

Scotland will begin their campaign with confidence against Haiti after their recent results and must win to give themselves a chance of qualifying for the knockout stages, as they are in the same group as Brazil and Morocco.
