Preview

Match preview

Slovenia host Scotland in their opening UEFA Nations League B group fixture. Slovenia arrive having recorded one win, two draws, and two defeats across their last five matches, including a 1-1 home draw against Cyprus and a 2-1 away loss to Croatia.

Scotland enter this contest following consecutive defeats against Morocco and Brazil, failing to score in either match. Prior to those losses, the Scots had assembled a three-match winning run that included victories over Haiti, Bolivia, and Curacao.

Previous meetings between these nations during 2017 World Cup qualification produced a 1-0 win for Scotland on home soil and a 2-2 draw in Slovenia. With both teams beginning a new group campaign, an organized and tightly contested match is expected.

Under 2.5 Goals — 68% confidence

Scotland have recently struggled for attacking output against structured opponents, failing to score in their last two outings against Morocco and Brazil. Slovenia also regularly feature in tight encounters, with three of their previous five games generating under 2.5 goals, including 1-1 draws with Cyprus and Sweden and a 1-0 defeat to Hungary. Both sides are likely to prioritize defensive structure in this group opener.

Slovenia or Draw — 64% confidence

Slovenia have avoided defeat in three of their last five fixtures, which included a 3-2 victory away at Montenegro and a 1-1 draw against Cyprus. Scotland have lost their last two matches without scoring, suggesting their attacking rhythm is somewhat subdued heading into this away trip. Backing the home side to avoid defeat provides solid coverage across two plausible outcomes.

These two calls are about different parts of the match (total goals and double chance), so neither one determines the other. The figure shown is the lower of the two — a combo can never be more likely than its weaker leg.
