What time is Scotland v Brazil? Date, UK kick-off time, stadium and squads

Scotland are in Miami in their final group stage game in hope of making history and reaching the knockout phase of the World Cup for the first time.

The Tartan Army started their campaign by beating Haiti 1-0, thanks to a John McGinn deflected shot.

However, in their second clash with Morocco in Group C, Steve Clarke‘s side conceded after just 70 seconds and lost 1-0.

They head into their third and final group game against Brazil tonight with their fate in their own hands.

With Carlo Ancelotti‘s side and the Champions of Africa sharing a point between themselves, there’s still a possibility Scotland could finish top of Group C.

Scotland vs Brazil: Date and how to follow

Up next for Scotland will be a clash with five-time world champions Brazil tonight – Wednesday, June 24.

The game will kick off at 11pm BST, 6pm local time.

It will be played at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, home to NFL team the Miami Dolphins.

There is a strong possibility of bad weather in Miami around the game’s schedule start time.

France’s win over Iraq on Monday night was delayed by two hours due to storming weather and similar issues have occurred in Miami recently.

There is expected to be thunder and lightning around the stadium during the day and current conditions at kick-off are set to be 31C with heavy rain, high humidity and a real feel if 41C.

A match can only go ahead after 30 minutes has passed since the last lightning strike and that countdown will reset should more inclement weather come.

The venue has hosted two World Cup games so far, including the four-goal thriller between Uruguay and Cape Verde.

It will also hold Portugal vs Columbia, one fixture of the round of 32, a quarter-final and the bronze medal match.

The other Group C fixture between Morocco and Haiti kicks off at the same time in Atlanta at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium, while two Group A fixtures follow at 3am.

Scotland vs Brazil: Head-to-head

The last time this fixture was played was in France at the 1998 World Cup.

Carlos Cesar Sampaio and a Tommy Boyd own goal gave Brazil a 2-1 win, with Scotland’s John Collins claiming one back at the end.

28 year later, can Scotland get the better of the South American giants?

Brazil have looked like a weakened version of themselves despite not losing a single game yet, which Steve Clarke’s men could take advantage of certain areas.

However, a draw would still be a strong result and could be enough to qualify for the knockouts.

Neymar could also make an appearance for the Selecao after fighting to be match fit and will he be able to create a difference.
