Scotland are making their first appearance at a World Cup since 1998. It’s been a long wait for the Tartan Army who will hope that their team’s participation goes beyond the group stage. Steve Clarke’s men sealed their place at the tournament thanks to a dramatic win over Denmark and the draw has been relatively kind. Especially as they are playing Haiti in their first Group C clash before tougher assignments against Morocco and Brazil. The bookmakers have been creating lots of different betting markets surrounding Scotland’s participation in the World Cup. The good news is that a place in the last 32 looks well within their grasp according to the latest odds. Scotland 80% Likely to Reach World Cup Last 32 Stage England fans might be dismissive when it comes to Scotland’s chances of success in north America, although it looks as though the latter won’t be coming home too soon according to the betting market. The boys in blue are trading at 1.25 to qualify from Group C and that implies an 80% probability that they make it through. The fact that they’re strong favourites to beat Haiti in their opener means that their passage to the last 32 could be virtually guaranteed after that first game. They then have a puncher’s chance of landing at least a point against Morocco in their second game before clashing with Brazil in what might be a meaningless match for the latter if they have won both games already. Bookies Predicting Last 32 Exit For Steve Clarke’s Tartan Army Although it’s likely that Scotland will navigate their way into the bracket, the bookmakers predict that is where their participation is going to end. The British side are currently trading at odds of 1.80 to go out at the last 32 stage of the competition. The perception is that Steve Clarke’s side might go through as one of the third-placed qualifiers. That would mean a tough knockout match against one of the twelve group winners. They couldn’t meet Brazil or Morocco, although there will be lots of other strong nations lying in wait. The bookies make it a 55% chance that Scotland go out at the first knockout phase of the competition, although there’s a roughly 20% chance that the Scots are instead dumped out in the last sixteen. An exit at this stage of the competition would be regarded as success for a nation used to disappointment on the world stage.
