Scotland face Switzerland in the Nations League at Hampden Park on Tuesday, September 28, with kick-off at 7.45pm GMT. The match marks Sebastien Pocognoli's first home game as Scotland manager.
Pocognoli's debut and Group E start
The Belgian began his tenure with a point away to Slovenia on Saturday in the opening matchday of Group E. Scotland struggled to create chances in the first half in Ljubljana but showed signs of the high-intensity, pressing style favoured by the new manager after the break.
They will aim to build on that display against a Swiss side ranked 14th in the FIFA World Rankings. Murat Yakin's team reached the quarter-finals of the World Cup during the summer, where they lost to eventual runners-up Argentina, and started their Nations League campaign with a 3-0 win away to North Macedonia.
Team news and squad
Switzerland are without veterans Granit Xhaka and Breel Embolo, but the squad remains full of talent as they seek promotion back to the top tier of the Nations League. Pocognoli has plenty of elite-level players available as well.
Scotland squad: Goalkeepers: Scott Bain, Angus Gunn, Liam Kelly, Jon McCracken. Defenders: Luis Binks, Josh Doig, Colby Donovan, Luke Graham, Jack Hendry, Aaron Hickey, Scott McKenna, Nathan Patterson, Andy Robertson, Stephen Welsh.
