History is within reach for Scotland ahead of their final World Cup group game against Brazil.

Scotland v Brazil predictions
Scotland have been a pragmatic side under Steve Clarke and that could be their ticket to the knock-out stages of the World Cup.
The Miami heat is going to make things more difficult but expect a battling defensive performance from the Scots, who may well keep a Brazil side struggling for fluency quiet.
They will get a chance or two themselves, someone – we’re looking at you Scott McTominay – needs to step up and take it. If they can, this could one of the most famous nights in Scottish football history.
Radio Times says… Scotland 1-1 Brazil
