Match preview

Scotland host FYR Macedonia at Hampden Park on 13 November 2026 at 22:45 in a UEFA Nations League fixture where promotion remains within reach for the hosts. Scott McTominay returns from injury to bolster Scotland's midfield, while Che Adams is also available to strengthen the attack. Sebastien Pocognoli's side have won just one of their last five home matches but generated an xG of 1.58, indicating they create genuine chances. With stakes high, Scotland should press forward aggressively.

North Macedonia arrive in dire form. They have lost all four group matches without scoring a single goal. Bojan Miovski has been left out of the squad, and their attacking statistics are bleak: 0.14 goals per away game across their last seven outings and an away xG of just 0.53. They concede 2.86 goals per game on the road. This is a mismatch on paper.

Form and H2H

Scotland's home record is patchy but their underlying metrics suggest they should dominate possession and territory against an opponent in freefall. North Macedonia's campaign has been a complete washout, and their away performances have been particularly weak. The gap in quality and current form is substantial.

Best Bet

Scotland to win at 1.22 with 1xBet. The hosts are heavy favourites for good reason: they need the points for promotion hopes, they play at home, and North Macedonia have not scored in four straight matches. A Scotland victory is the most likely outcome.

Odds to Watch

The correct score of Scotland 2-0 FYR Macedonia carries value at longer odds. Scotland should win comfortably, and a two-goal margin fits their attacking intent against a defence that has conceded 2.86 per away game. Under 2.5 goals is also worth considering given North Macedonia's inability to score, though Scotland's attacking threat makes this less certain than a home win.
