Scotland vs. San Marino – Score prediction (13.10.2019)

Overview.

After a second-half demolishing in Russia that saw Scotland concede four goals after half-time, the Scots are now playing for pride only as they take on lowly San Marino – a team they’ve beaten by at least four goals in the previous three home H2Hs. An easy win is expected for Scotland here, especially as they can boast an aggregate scoreline of 21-0 over the past seven meetings. However a note of caution – the hosts have shipped at least two goals in four of their previous five home games (W2, L3), as well as conceding one goal in four of their last five European Championship qualifying (ECQ) home matches against bottom-seeded teams.

It’s been business as usual for FIFA’s lowest-ranked nation San Marino, who are on a run of 34 straight losses, with the last 16 coming ‘to nil’. The visitors’ 9-0 thrashing in Belgium was their fifth ECQ away defeat in a row by at least a four-goal margin, and only one of their 37 ECQ away games have finished with a losing margin of less than two goals. Unfortunately for San Marino they’re not very good at delaying the inevitable, and have conceded an average of 3.75 goals before half-time across their four ECQ away games this campaign – although only one of those fixtures saw the opener conceded before the 20th minute.
