Cyprus 1 Scotland 2 LIVE RESULT: McGinn hands Scots win as they look to end campaign on a high


SCOTLAND will hope to record a morale boosting win when they face Cyprus in this Euro 2020 qualifier.

A run of one win in their past five qualifying games means Steve Clarke’s men can’t progress from Group I and will require Nations League play-off success to reach next summer’s tournament.

They sit a place and a point behind Cyprus in fourth in their group and have a number of injury concerns going into the match.

The Mediterranean island side came close to taking a point in the reverse fixture, but were ultimately beaten by an 89th-minute Oliver Burke effort in the 2-1 Scottish victory.

Scotland XI: Marshall, Palmer, Taylor, Jack, Gallagher, McKenna, Forrest, McGinn, Naismith, McGregor, Christie

Subs: McLaughlin, MacGillivray, Shinnie, Fleck, Devlin, Morgan, Burke, Armstrong, Shankland, McBurnie, O’Donnell, Porteous
