Haiti vs Scotland Preview: Long-Awaited World Cup Returns Collide in Group C

12 Jun 2026

Two nations ending lengthy World Cup absences meet at Boston Stadium, with Haiti back for the first time since 1974 and Scotland returning after a 28-year wait. Both face a daunting Group C that also contains Brazil and Morocco. Scotland, ranked far higher, are favourites and chase a first World Cup win since 1990, though Scott McTominay's fitness is a concern. Haiti's Premier League pair Jean-Ricner Bellegarde and Wilson Isidor carry hopes of a historic upset.
