Scotland vs Ukraine. Prediction and Betting Tips for 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers (June 1, 2022).

Two years ago, the Scottish national team participated in Euro 2020, which was their first appearance at that tournament since 1996. Scotland failed to qualify for the playoffs - they earned their only point in the game against England.

Steve Clarke's side have done well in their World Cup qualification group, collecting 23 points from 10 matches (7 wins and 2 draws). Scotland won each of their last six qualification games, but that was not enough to secure the first place in the group - they finished in second place, four points behind Denmark. In the last three games, Scotland defeated Faroe Islands (1:0), Moldova (2:0), and Denmark (2:0).

The hosts will be without McLaughlin, Marshall, Nisbet, Patterson, Tierney, and Fraser. 

Ukraine reached the quarterfinals at the Euro 2020. They defeated Sweden in the first round of the playoffs, but lost to England (0:4) in the final eight. After such a successful result, Andriy Shevchenko left the position of the team manager. At the moment, the team is lead by Oleksandr Petrakov. 

The team finished second in Group D of the 2022 FIFA World Cup qualifiers, with 12 points from eight matches (2 wins and 6 draws). Notably, the Blue-and-Yellows didn't suffer a single defeat. 

Ukraine had three control matches in May. They celebrated success over Borussia Mönchengladbach (2:1) and Empoli (3:1), and in the last game shared the spoils with HNK Rijeka (1:1).
