Expert Picks

Scotland are a team that most people are going to write-off, especially when they're in a group with teams like Brazil and Morocco, but man you can't sleep on this squad. Look at some of the names on their attack: Scott McTominay, LAwrence Shankland, John McGinn and Che Adams just to name a few. This is a team that regardless of their opponent, they will attack, press forward, and score some dang goals. Haiti's defense will struggle all competition, and I expect Scotland to cover this over by themselves.

I'm just going to get this out of the way now, I have a bit of a bias towards this Scotland squad. I really like how they play together and Scott McTominay is an absolute stud of a player. They worked their butts off through qualification to get here, and this is a team many people will write-off early, but I won't be one of them. Scotland are a team that play for blood every second of every match. This isn't a team that parks the bus, and we saw that when they put up four against Curacao and Bolivia in their friendlies. Haiti did a fantastic job to qualify for this, but that's it. They will be the punching bag of this group.
