Scotland begin their World Cup qualifying campaign away to Malta on Sunday. The importance of making a positive start to the campaign was emphasised during the Euro 2016 qualifiers, when Northern Ireland began with three straight wins on their way to winning Group F.
The Scots' recent record in the opening games of qualifying tournaments is not encouraging, though. Since they last reached the finals of a major competition – France 98 – Scotland have played in nine qualifying groups and won only two of their opening matches. Here is the playing record and the results:
P 9 W 2 D 5 L 2 GF 10 GA 5
Euro 2000 qualifying – Lithuania 0-0 Scotland
World Cup 2002 qualifying – Latvia 0-1 Scotland
Euro 2004 qualifying – Faroe Islands 2-2 Scotland
World Cup 2006 qualifying – Scotland 0-0 Slovenia
Euro 2008 qualifying – Scotland 6-0 Faroe Islands
World Cup 2010 qualifying – Macedonia 1-0 Scotland
Euro 2012 qualifying – Lithuania 0-0 Scotland
World Cup 2014 qualifying – Scotland 0-0 Serbia
Euro 2016 qualifying – Germany 2-1 Scotland
