Bookmaker Ratings Prediction One: Draw or Scotland Win – 1.52
Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Two: Over 2 Goals – 1.57
Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Three: Ukraine to Score First – 2.01
Draw or Scotland to Win
Scotland have won four of their five games in the Nations League and have lost one of their last six away trips. The form stats are showing a 60% chance for a Scotland win and a 25% probability of a draw.
Over 2 Goals
The 90% possibility for this match to see two or more goals is justified by the fact that all previous h2h meetings ended with the suggested outcome. Moreover, Ukraine’s last four and Scotland’s previous ten fixtures produced over two strikes.
Ukraine to Score First
In the five games of the UEFA Nations League fixtures by both teams, Ukraine had the better start to matches. To illustrate, Ukraine scored first in three of their five outings while Scotland conceded in three of their five UNL games.
Ukraine
After a 0-5 thrashing win over Armenia in Yerevan on matchday five, Ukraine set up a do-or-die clash with Scotland in the final round of the UNL League B Group one. Ukraine have a chance to clinch promotion if they beat Scotland, against whom they lost 3-0 just a week ago.
Despite the ongoing difficulties in their country, Ukraine did very well to reach this far in the competition. In fact, Ukraine have the best defense in the group with four goals conceded in five games. With ten points from five games, the difference with Scotland is one draw but a win here will cancel out the two-point deficit Ukraine have.
Scotland
Scotland showed great character in their last match beating Ireland after going down by a goal early in the match. It was a complete domination by Scotland in terms of ball possession with 50% but their goal was threatened more by the Irish by 5-4.
Obviously, Scotland need a draw to gain promotion to League A. They won one and lost one of their two away games in Group one. In their previous ten away fixtures, Scotland have a positive record winning five and losing three.
This is one of many matches in the Nations League between the group’s top two teams playing for promotion. Scotland seem to be in great momentum and are entering this game after a three-game winning run. In conclusion, we will back a draw or Scotland to win.

In the last three meetings between Ukraine and Scotland, over three goals were scored. Moreover, both teams’ last two matches also ended with three or more goals. Hence with odds of 3.02 at 22Bet, we will back over three goals to be scored in this match.
Ryan Christie was the man of the match in Scotland’s last game against Ireland. The Scot scored from the penalty spot and assisted another one to give his team the edge over Ireland and put them a step closer to promotion.
Sergiy Sydorchuk of Ukraine is suspended with yellow card accumulation.
Scotland meanwhile are without goalkeeper John McLaughlin through injury and Scott McTominay through yellow card suspension. Tierney is a doubt after being substituted against Ireland.
