Scotland hosts Israel in round 7 of the World Cup qualification. The match will be played on Saturday, October 9th at Hampden Park (Glasgow)
Denmark is the undisputed favorite of Group F. The Danes won all six matches with a total score of 22-0. An incredible figure! But the struggle for the second line, which allows getting into the playoffs, only intensified. Now as many as three teams claim it. Scotland has scored 11 points to date. This indicator allows the team to go in 2nd place. After a not entirely successful start in the World Cup qualification, the Scots partially improved the situation for the better. In September, Steve Clarke's charges beat Austria and Moldova with the same score of 1-0 and lost to formidable Denmark (2-0). In both won matches, everything was decided by goals from 25-year-old QPR striker Lyndon Dykes in the first half.

Israel is on the third line of the Group F standings. The team scored ten points. The Blue and Whites score a lot but concede regularly either. Israel is an uncompromising team, which has good attacking players, but its defense cannot be called reliable. As a result, most of the matches with Israel's participation are productive, and referees fix goals from both sides in every second game. In September, the Israelis sent nine goals to the nets of the Faroe Islands and Austria, but then they lost to leading Denmark without a chance (5-0). Solomon, Dabbur, and Zahavi are the key players in the offensive line of Israel.
These teams shared points in the first round of qualification for the 2022 World Cup (1-1). We expect a productive game this time as well. The players of the national teams of Israel and Scotland have good motivation, as they are fighting for the second place. Having beaten the Austrians, both the hosts and the visitors left the competitors a little behind. Now the one who wins will be able to gain a foothold in second place. We expect two or three goals scored in the upcoming game.
Prediction for the match: Over 1.75 goals scored
