Scotland at World Cup 2026 — Group C & Route
Scotland’s group stage 2026 draw handed them one of the tournament’s most polarising groups. Group C pairs them with Brazil (FIFA #5, tournament co-favourites), Morocco (#14, 2022 semi-finalists) and Haiti (#85). The Scotland World Cup 2026 fixtures are split between Gillette Stadium in Foxborough and Hard Rock Stadium in Miami. In WC2026’s expanded 48-team format, the top two advance; finishing first opens a gentler Round of 32 path against a Group F runner-up, while second place likely draws the Group F winner — expected to be the Netherlands.
