Steve Clarke confirmed the squad rotation ahead of the 1pm BST kick-off, citing the need for minutes after a long season. "We've got players that haven't played since the start of May," he stated, adding that the modern game demands squad depth. Key absentees include Che Adams, Lewis Ferguson, Kieran Tierney, and Ross Stewart.
Curaçao boss Dick Advocaat, the former Rangers manager, expressed optimism despite facing a strong Scottish lineup. He noted his team is well-organised and ready to face the "quite difficult group" awaiting Scotland at the World Cup. xsportfeed.quest
