First win at a World Cup in 36 years? Scotland are odds-on favourites to win their opener against Haiti – with their star Scott McTominay 7/4 to have 2+ shots on target

Scotland have a golden opportunity to secure their first World Cup victory in 36 years when Steve Clarke’s side take on Haiti in Boston early tomorrow morning (BST).

The bookmakers certainly expect them to end that long wait, with Scotland priced as strong 4/9 favourites. Haiti, meanwhile, are 5/1 outsiders, while the draw is available at 7/2.

For punters looking beyond the match result, Sky Bet has rolled out a number of eye-catching Price Boosts that are attracting plenty of attention.

Among them, Andy Robertson is 1/1 to create three or more shots and John McGinn is 17/2 to be the game’s first goalscorer.

Elsewhere, Ben Gannon-Doak is 4/1 to win three or more fouls, and Scott McTominay is boosted to 6/1 to have three or more shots on target.

There is plenty to support interest in Scotland’s attacking players. McTominay has enjoyed a prolific spell since joining Napoli in 2024-25, contributing 29 goal contributions, including 22 goals. 

McGinn also arrives in good form after recording 10 goals and eight assists across all competitions for Aston Villa last season.
