Is Scotland vs Croatia on TV tonight? Kick-off time, team news, channel and how to watch Nations League game

Scotland must take points off Croatia in their clash at Hampden Park if they have any chance of avoiding relegation from League A in the Nations League.

Steve Clarke’s men suffered three straight defeats in this campaign but a goalless draw with Portugal gave them hope of pulling off a surprising survival.

Scotland trail Poland by three points in the group so will need some help from the Portuguese if they hope to overturn that deficit. The big opportunity will come next week with a trip to Poland where anything less than three points would send Scotland into the lower league.

Croatia are secure but will have their sights set on topping the group. They will need to beat Scotland to do so which means they will throw everything at them this evening.

Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the game.

The clash takes place on Friday 15 November with kick-off set for 7:45pm GMT at Hampden Park
