After the high of the play-off semi-final win over Israel, it's back to reality for Scotland tonight against Slovakia. Sitting in top spot in League B Group 2 of the UEFA Nations League, the Scots will fancy their chances against the rock bottom visitors.

writers take a look ahead of kick-off. The squad will still be riding on the crest of a wave from Thursday night's penalty shootout high and, hopefully, we play with a wee bit more freedom.
