SCOTLAND have a priceless one-goal lead to defend as they get Greece back to Hampden this Sunday.
And competing the two-legged win over Ivan Jovanovic’s dangerous side would be a great boost as we prepare to face the same side in World Cup qualifying action later in the year.

The Greeks showed enough in the narrow 1-0 win in Piraeus on Thursday night to prove they will be formidable opponents in qualifying – with Belarus and either Portugal or Denmark also in there.
But for now Clarke and his men are simply keen to ensure that they remain in the top tier of Nations League sides for the next cycle.
They lead the tie at half time courtesy of Scott McTominay‘s nerveless first half penalty.
That elusive second goal never came – but then neither did any goals against, which Greece more than merited for their dominance in the second period.
