Georgia v Scotland predictions

Scotland's qualification for Euro 2024 was confirmed last month but their chances of finishing top of Group A are set to be damaged by a failure to defeat Georgia in Tbilisi.

Steve Clarke's side have put together an excellent campaign, highlighted by a memorable 2-0 triumph over Spain at Hampden Park.

They remain level on points with Spain and hold an unassailable five-point lead over third-placed Norway, who have one game remaining.

Qualifying with two games to spare is a superb achievement and it is probably just as well because the Scots are approaching the November schedule with a depleted squad.

The wingback positions have been Scotland's greatest strength in recent years but they could be an area of weakness against the Georgians because Andy Robertson, Kieran Tierney and Aaron Hickey are among the absentees.

Clarke will do his best to put out a competitive side but the defensive rejig presents Georgia with an opportunity to put a third win on the board.

The Georgians are in fourth place with seven points from six games and remain in the Euro 2024 qualification hunt, having earned a place in next year's playoffs.

Willy Sagnol's side suffered a 7-1 loss at home to Spain in September, but they have been competitive in all of their other matches and have an outside chance of challenging Norway for third place.

Georgia have lost just one of their last ten home games, including an eye-catching 2-0 success at home to Sweden at the end of World Cup qualifying, and they possess the firepower to cause problems for Scotland's understrength back-line.

Napoli attacker Khvicha Kvaratskhelia is the star man, having established himself as a top-class performer on the Serie A and Champions League stages, and he should be well-supported by Ajax forward Georges Mikautadze, who has scored three of Georgia's nine goals in the group.

Over many years Georgia have been a team with some decent individual players who have failed to realise their potential.

However, they have showed signs of progress by climbing from League D to League B in the Nations League and the next step for them would be to qualify for a major tournament.

Sagnol's side will be keen to take as much positivity as possible into next year's playoffs and they look a shade overpriced to earn at least point against Scotland.

Key stat

Georgia have avoided defeat in nine of their last ten home games.

Probable teams

Georgia (3-5-2): Mamardashvili; Kvirkvelia, Kashia, Lochoshvili; Mamuchashvili, Chakvetadze, Kvekveskiri, Kochorashvili, Azarovi; Mikautadze, Kvaratskhelia.

Scotland (3-4-2-1): Kelly; Porteous, Hendry, McKenna; Patterson, McTominay, McGregor, Taylor; Christie, McGinn; Dykes.
