Brazil have awoken just a little bit more in their last clash beating Haiti 3-0, so poor old Scotland might get the really good one in this Group C Scotland vs Brazil match up. Scotland might regret not beating Haiti by more, as it may cost them a place in the knockout stage if Brazil decide to turn up and destroy them. But who knows, the Scottish team could come out and deliver an historic win. They’ll be overturning some history though, the H2H is Brazil with 8 eight wins and two draws from then game.
