  • Haiti and Scotland are set to play their second Group C match of the 2026 World Cup in Boston.
  • Both teams are making significant returns to the tournament, with Haiti appearing for only the second time and Scotland returning after a 28-year absence.
  • The match is particularly important as both teams are grouped with powerhouses Brazil and Morocco, who drew their opening game.

Haiti and Scotland will face each other on Saturday at the Gillette Stadium in Boston, marking the second match of Group C in the 2026 World Cup. This group also includes Brazil and Morocco, who began their campaigns with a 1-1 draw.

Both nations are making significant comebacks to the global tournament. Scotland returns after a 28-year absence, with this being their eighth World Cup appearance overall. They are led by manager Steve Clarke and feature key players like Scott McTominay and Andy Robertson.

Haiti, on the other hand, is participating in just their second World Cup, having previously appeared in Germany in 1974. The Caribbean nation, coached by Sรฉbastien Mignรฉ, places much of its offensive hopes on Duckens Nazon.

The game holds particular importance given the results of the other group match, where Brazil and Morocco played to a draw. A win for either Haiti or Scotland would provide a crucial boost in their quest to advance to the next round.

While Scotland is considered the favorite due to their greater international experience, Haiti arrives with the ambition of causing an upset and making a memorable debut in this edition of the tournament. Fans can follow the minute-by-minute action of this encounter.
