Scotland look to pull off an upset against Brazil

Scotland faces one of its toughest assignments of the FIFA World Cup 2026 group stage when it takes on Brazil.

With an experienced generation and several key players competing in some of Europe’s top leagues, the Scots could opt for a 4-2-3-1 formation.

Che Adams would lead the attack

The attacking responsibility would fall on Che Adams, a forward known for his ability to press opposing defenders.

Scotland will need Adams to be clinical with the chances that come his way, as every opportunity could prove decisive against a team like Brazil.

Angus Gunn; Anthony Ralston, Grant Hanley, Scott McKenna, Andy Robertson; Scott McTominay, Ryan Jack; Ryan Christie, John McGinn, Kenny McLean; Che Adams.

Robertson’s experience, McTominay’s leadership, and McGinn’s creativity will be crucial to Scotland’s hopes of achieving a positive result.
