Scotland's World Cup fate hangs in the balance. The team's progression depends on multiple factors, including the results of other teams in the group.

What's next for Scotland?

With eight third-place finishers advancing to the round of 32, Scotland is currently seventh best, but still has a chance to make it through.

Fans' plans

Supporters are faced with a difficult decision: stay or go home. Some, like Dave Watson, have already booked flights back, while others, like Callum from Linwood, have sold their cars to stay and follow the team. | Destination | Cost | | --- | --- | | Boston | £261 | | New York | £17 | | Mexico City | £433 |

Expense and uncertainty

The cost of traveling to potential destinations is a significant factor for fans. The cheapest flight from Miami to Boston is £261, while a direct flight to Mexico City costs £433. As Alan Horsburgh, a Scotland fan, said: 'I have a five-hour bus journey from Miami to Orlando tomorrow, and on that journey, I will be looking at the permutations to try to work out if we're going to get through and where we might play.'

Current context

As of 25 Jun 2026, Scotland's recent form has been 1W-0D-1L, with their last result being Liechtenstein 0-4 Scotland on 2025-06-09. The team's fate will be decided soon, and fans are eagerly awaiting the outcome.
