This UEFA Nations League clash takes place at Hampden Park in Glasgow, Scotland and kicks off on Friday, November 15 at 7:45 p.m. local time.

Steve Clarke is without Angus Gunn and James Forrest due to injuries, both of whom are usually key members of his squad. John McGinn and Stuart Armstrong are back in contention to boost Clarke's options in the middle of the park, although both are on the bench.

Liverpool youngster Ben Doak — who has been impressing on loan at Middlesbrough of late — is granted a start, with the forward-thinking duo Che Adams and Lewis Morgan unavailable for this international break.

Croatia goalkeeper Dominik Livakovic misses this game through suspension after being sent off against Poland in his nation's previous match. The uber-experienced midfield pair of Luka Modric and Mateo Kovacic both start.

Fiorentina's Marin Pongracic is sidelined due to a hip injury, but Ajax star Josip Sutalo has been passed fit to be involved. Former Southampton man Duje Caleta-Car joins him in central defence. 

Croatia starting lineup (4-2-3-1, right to left): Kotarski (GK) — Jakic, Sutalo, Caleta-Car, Gvardiol — Modric, Kovacic — L. Sucic, P. Sucic, Baturina — Kramaric

Croatia have won the last two meetings between them and Scotland, which gives them a slight edge coming into this match.

Scotland have shown they can make things uncomfortable for top sides. However, it will be difficult for them to overcome a well-oiled Croatian machine. The away side should get all three points, although the hosts won't make it easy for them.
