FIFA WC 2026: When and Where to watch Haiti vs Scotland, know all details
Foxborough, June 13 (IANS) Haiti and Scotland will mark their much-awaited return to the FIFA World Cup 2026 when both teams face each other in the first match of Group C at the Boston Stadium on Sunday (IST).
Scotland has secured their berth in the multinational tournament after a gap of 28 years, and they will look to start their campaign on a winning note. The European nation is coming to the contest after registering a one-sided 0-4 victory against Bolivia in the friendlies ahead of the tournament.
Scotland’s group has heavyweights Brazil and Morocco, and Steve Clarke’s side would look to dominate against less threatening Haiti to move to the next round.
On the other side, Haiti are returning to the World Cup after a long gap. They last played in the tournament in 1974. Haiti is ranked 83rd in the FIFA Rankings, which is much lower compared to Scotland, which is placed at 40th rank.
Despite the ranking deficit, Haiti will be hoping to shock the world and mark a noticeable return to the big stage.
