Match Preview

Ahead of our Slovenia vs Scotland preview and free football tips, the hosts find themselves still unbeaten at home in Group F. They last suffered a defeat on home soil in World Cup qualifying back in 2013 versus Iceland.

Our partners: Reliable, respectable, and accessible – those are the three characteristics that come to mind when speaking about free spins no deposit mobile casino uk 777Spinslot.

Slovenia haven’t even conceded at home in qualifying thus far, with even table-topping England being held to a 0-0 draw in Ljubljana. It will be a very tough test for Gordon Strachan’s men to come away with even a share of the spoils.

Our Slovenia vs Scotland predictions are based off this phenomenal home form, which makes the UEFA World Cup Qualifying football odds very tempting. Down to the fact that Scotland require three points to stay in second place, they are attributed more value than usual.

Even though the Tartan Army need a win to try and finish in second place to have a chance of heading to the World Cup, Slovenia will be hoping to do the same thing by winning to nil this weekend.

Slovenia vs Scotland Prediction and Betting Advice

The home side are unbeaten in their last six home games in qualifying, meaning that they haven’t tasted defeat in their own stadium since the start of the campaign. Scotland will have to muster up something special to try and end such a positive run.

What’s more, Slovenia have kept clean sheets in every single one of these games, which will ask huge amounts of Scotland’s attack. Strachan’s side have been criticised for not having a way to create much within games, and this weekend the hosts will arguably be their toughest test yet in that regard.

Last month, Lithuania suffered a 4-0 loss to Slovenia, with Malta losing 2-0 a few months prior to that. The last time that the hosts had a very tough opponent come to visit them in Ljubljana, it ended in a 0-0 stalemate with the Three Lions. William Hill offer the best value on another positive home result.

Given that Slovenia’s defensive record has been so excellent at home, our Slovenia vs Scotland bets are based on there being not a huge deal of entertainment in this contest. The hosts should keep things tight on their own end, while Scotland struggle to create a great deal of danger at the other.

Strachan’s men have failed to score in two of their last three away qualifiers, with both England and Slovakia managing to keep clean sheets against them. Slovenia haven’t managed to rattle home many goals against the top seeds in Group F, so Unibet’s offer of there being less than three goals on Sunday looks very good.

Our Slovenia vs Scotland picks suggest that the hosts will be able to close out their Group F campaign with an unbeaten run at home. Scotland have improved of late, with a 3-0 away win vs Lithuania and four good consecutive results at Hampden Park but on their travels they should slip up once again.
