Scotland and Denmark are each on 10 factors.
The Danes have a good-looking aim distinction benefit of six targets, and that’s the first deciding issue if groups are degree on factors – not head-to-head.
Nonetheless, Scotland will probably be hoping they will get the job accomplished with out the necessity for such messiness.
We are able to most likely assume Denmark will beat point-less Belarus at dwelling in November – having thrashed them 6-0 final week – which might transfer them to 13 factors.
If Scotland beat an already-out Greece in Athens, they might match that tally, organising an high-anxiety decider at Hampden.
A attract that one on 18 November would virtually actually favour the Danes, given the aim distinction disparity.
Ought to the Scots attract Athens, victory over Denmark would nonetheless be sufficient to win the group.
Nonetheless, defeat for Scotland in Greece, coupled with a Denmark win over Belarus, would imply a unprecedented victory is required in that remaining sport to offer Clarke’s aspect any likelihood of automated qualification.
