Watch Croatia vs Scotland for FREE: Live stream, TV channel and kick-off time
Scotland take on Croatia in their third Nations League fixture in Zagreb on Saturday.
Steve Clarke's side began the League A Group 1 campaign with a 3-2 defeat at home to Poland and a 2-1 loss to Portugal in Lisbon and are looking to get back to winning ways. But they'll come up against a class act in Real Madrid superstar Luka Modric, who is arguably the best Croatian player of all time. The 2018 Ballon d'Or winner will earn his 181st cap when he lines up against the depleted Scots this weekend, who are without a staggering TWELVE regulars including Angus Gunn, Kieran Tierney and talisman John McGinn.
It's a problem Clarke and Scotland will have to be at their best to end their winless start in League A Group 1. Here, Football Scotland tells you everything you need to know ahead of the showdown.
