Why Scotland should be cheering on Armenia as battle for Nations League best runners up goes to the wire

Scotland bring this year's Nations League campaign to a close against Ukraine in Poland this evening and a single point is all that's required to secure top spot in Group B1.

With a Pot 2 seeding spot in the Euro 2024 draw up for grabs, the no.1 position is an important one. However, if Scotland fail to secure a vital point on Tuesday, opponents Ukraine would instead take the top billing, seeing Steve Clarke 's side drop to second place. Not all is lost if that happens though, with another chance of earning a Pot 2 provided by Germany's automatic qualification for the 2024 tournament as hosts.

That spot goes to the best runner-up of the four groups that currently make up Nations League B. And with Finland's victory over Montenegro on Tuesday night, the Norden country are in pole position to claim the second place price and subsequently a spot in next month's draw in Frankfurt. .
