It feels strange, but Scotland find themselves in a reasonably comfortable position. They’re already guaranteed at least a place in the play-offs to qualify for next year’s World Cup, so they’re now able to have a proper, relatively stress-free, lunge at the big prize: first spot, automatic qualification, a ticket to the finals for the first time since 1998. All (ahem) they need to do, assuming Denmark see off Belarus tonight, is come away from Greece with at least a point, then beat the Danes at Hampden on Tuesday. A tough ask, but far from a pipe dream.

The Greeks are already out, so they’ll either be disinterested or freewheeling, stroking it around without a care in the world. Seasoned followers of Scotland will have half an idea about which is the likelier, but it’s not all bad news: although Greece handed the Scots their trousers, freshly laundered, at Hampden in the second leg of the Nations League play-offs earlier this year, Steve Clarke’s side won the first leg of that tie in Piraeus, and also came from behind to win at Hampden last month in these qualifiers. And two out of three ain’t bad.

Of course, whether or not the play-offs represent much of a safety net is a moot point. Italy will be in those, for a start, and that screams a 1-0 victory for the Scots at Hampden followed by goals for the Azzurri in the 89th and 90th minutes of the second leg. But let’s cross that bridge if and when it comes. For now, automatic qualification is still in Scotland’s sight, and here’s the first hurdle. Kick-off is at 7.45pm GMT. It’s on!
