What channel is Scotland v Slovenia? TV and live stream for Nations League match

How to watch Scotland v Slovenia

Scotland conclude their first international window under Sebastien Pocognoli with a Nations League match against Slovenia at Hampden Park on Tuesday.

After collecting four points from the Belgian’s opening three games as head coach, Scotland sit third in Group B1, behind Slovenia on goal difference and five points adrift of leaders Switzerland.

Kicking off with a goalless draw against their next opponents in Ljubljana 10 days ago, Scotland then crashed to a 3-0 defeat at home to Switzerland after an early red card for defender Jack Hendry before earning their first win of the new era with a 2-0 victory in North Macedonia on Saturday.

Pocognoli is now looking for back-to-back wins that will put Scotland in a healthy position in the table ahead of the November internationals, where they host North Macedonia before travelling to St. Gallen for the return match against the Swiss.

A top two finish in Group B1 will secure a promotion play-off against a team from Nations League A, while also clinching pot two seeding for the 2028 European Championship qualification draw, which takes place in December.
