Predicted Scotland XI for Spain Euro 2024 showdown as Steve Clarke faced with McTominay and Jack decision

Scotland opened their Euro 2024 qualification campaign with a 3-0 win over Cyprus at Hampden Park on Saturday - and will look to keep momentum going against Spain.

The scoreline was convincing in the end but there will need to be vast improvement when the Spainish arrive at the national stadium, and Steve Clarke's men have lost just once from their last 17 home internationals and have proved they can match some of Europe's top guns under the lights. Spain also got their road to Germany off to flyer by defeating Norway also by a three goal deficit to set up a pulsating clash in Glasgow.

Clarke's substitute bench came to the rescue to secure the points against the Cypriots as Scott McTominay bagged a brace late on, while Ryan Christie, Nathan Patterson and Lyndon Dykes all made impressive cases to have a place in the starting XI. One of the places certainly up for grabs is in centre midfield. Ryan Jack started alongside Callum McGregor on matchday one however McTominay's two goals coupled with his drive and experience for Manchester United could force his manager's hand into at least one alteration.
