Scotland vs. England: Head-to-Head Record, Likely Starting Lineups for Qualifier

Scotland welcome England to Hampden Park on June 10 for a 2018 World Cup qualifier, with the hosts needing a victory to keep their hopes of making it to Russia next year alive.

At the halfway point of qualifying, Gordon Strachan's side sit fourth in the group and have seven points from five games.

Although they lie six points behind leaders England, they are just two behind second-placed Slovakia, and one behind Slovenia in third.

However, only the group winners will qualify automatically for the World Cup finals with the eight best runners-up going into a two-legged play-off and Strachan admitted it's a "must-perform" game for his side, per BBC Sport.
