Scotland makes its comeback to the World Cup stage after a 28-year absence on Saturday when facing fellow returnee Haiti, which is appearing at the tournament for the first time since 1974.
The Europeans are clear favorites and should secure a relatively comfortable win that immediately propels them toward qualification for the last 32, but they can ill-afford to underestimate Haiti despite its position as third-lowest ranked nation in the competition.
Scotland warmed up with four-goal wins over Curaçao and Bolivia, while Haiti fired four of its own past New Zealand before stumbling to defeat at the hands of Peru. Many are projecting Steve Clarke’s side to be on the right side of another high-scoring affair, but his weak defense offers Haiti hope.
Here’s how to tune into the clash in Foxborough, Massachusetts.

What’s Next for Haiti, Scotland?
Scotland knows beating Haiti is ever so important considering the matches on the horizon. A clash with Morocco on June 19 will prove an incredibly awkward test, after which a group stage finale with Brazil arrives on June 24.
Haiti is up against the record world champions next, followed by its game with Morocco. Both will almost certainly end in defeat.
