Scotland host Slovenia at Hampden Park in a UEFA Nations League B Group 1 fixture that carries real weight for both sides as the group begins to take shape.
Sébastien Pocognoli's side head into this match on the back of a morale-lifting 2-0 win away to North Macedonia, a result that ended a winless start to his tenure and handed Andy Robertson a historic 100th cap. The Scotland captain joined Kenny Dalglish in an exclusive club, and the victory offered a glimpse of what Pocognoli is trying to build.
Before that, the picture was considerably darker. A 3-0 home defeat to Switzerland, compounded by Jack Hendry's early red card, left the Scots searching for answers and sitting third in the group. The win in Skopje has steadied the ship, but questions about the team's goalscoring consistency remain.
Slovenia arrive in Glasgow in second place, sitting above Scotland on goal difference and form. Boštjan Cesar's side beat North Macedonia 2-0 on matchday two before suffering a narrow 2-1 defeat to Switzerland in Lucerne, a result that showed they can compete with the group leaders even if the points did not follow.
The two sides played out a goalless draw when they met on matchday one in September, so both teams will be looking to break that pattern with something more decisive on home soil this time around.

Form
Scotland have recorded one win, one draw, and three defeats across their last five matches. Their most recent result was the 2-0 Nations League victory over North Macedonia, which followed a heavy 3-0 home loss to Switzerland. Earlier in the run, Scotland drew 0-0 with Slovenia and suffered back-to-back World Cup defeats to Morocco and Brazil. Across those five matches, Scotland scored three goals and conceded seven, though the win in Skopje suggests some forward momentum is building.
Slovenia have two wins, two draws, and one defeat from their last five outings. Their most recent result was a 2-1 Nations League loss to Switzerland, and before that they beat North Macedonia 2-0 on matchday two. The earlier 0-0 draw with Scotland and a draw with Cyprus in a friendly show a side that is difficult to break down, while their only defeat in the run aside from Switzerland came against Croatia. Slovenia scored six goals and conceded four across those five matches.
Head-to-Head Record
The most recent meeting between these sides ended 0-0 in the UEFA Nations League B Group 1 opener on 26 September 2026. Across the last five recorded head-to-head fixtures, the series has been closely contested, with Scotland holding a narrow overall advantage that includes a 1-0 home win in 2017 World Cup qualification and a 3-0 away victory in October 2005. The two sides also drew 2-2 in Slovenia in October 2017 and played out a 1-1 draw in a 2012 friendly, underlining a pattern of tight, competitive encounters between the nations.
Standings
In UEFA Nations League B Group 1, Scotland currently sit third and Slovenia are second, meaning this fixture is a direct contest between two sides separated by a single place in the standings. Both teams are chasing Switzerland at the top, and the result here will have a direct bearing on who remains in contention for the group title.
