Everything you need to know ahead of Scotland v Norway at Hampden

Scotland will aim to bring their memorable Euro 2024 qualification campaign to a fitting conclusion when they host Norway at Hampden on Sunday.

Steve Clarke’s side secured a top two finish in Group A and a place in next summer's finals in Germany with two matches to spare ensuring the pressure is off ahead of the visit of Ståle Solbakken’s side.

However, there is still plenty to play for in the last remaining fixture with Scotland able to secure Pot 2 status for the Euro 2024 draw if they defeat the Norwegians by at least two goals to claim the distinction of best group runners-up.

A one-goal winning margin, draw or defeat will see Scotland slide into Pot 3, but the hosts will be eager to give the Tartan Army a happy send-off regardless ahead of a four-month international hiatus before the next camp in March for two friendlies against opponents yet to be confirmed.

There is also the slight chance of winning the group and claiming a Pot 1 place with a victory but Spain would also need to lose at home to Georgia on Sunday evening which would be considered highly unlikely.

Scotland would settle for a repeat of the 2-1 victory in Oslo in June which went a long way towards securing their qualification for the Euros with late goals from Lyndon Dykes and Kenny McLean which will live long in the memory earning a dramatic three points.

The Scots warmed up for the match with a 2-2 draw in Georgia on Thursday while Norway, who are completely out of the running for a Euro 2024 spot, claimed a 2-0 win over the Faroe Islands in a friendly.

Hearts striker Lawrence Shankland staked a claim for a starting spot against Norway by coming off the bench to score an injury-time equaliser against Georgia on Thursday. Half-time substitutes Lewis Ferguson and Kenny McLean are also pushing for a place in the starting XI after making positive contributions.

Norway will be without their two major stars with Manchester City striker Erling Haaland and Arsenal midfielder Martin Odegaard both ruled out due to injury.
