    I think Scotland are being massively overhyped. If we have a fully fit squad we'll win.

    Scotland are playing better than they have for a generation. I would expect Scotland to beat Wales if we beat Ukraine.
    You will need a fit and firing Gareth Bale to put that in doubt .

    against any of the 3 teams we would probably need one or both of Bale and Ramsey to be playing well in order for us to win.
    as has largely been the case for the last several years.

    Agreed , but Scotland have been so poor for so long I wouldn't have given them a chance coming here.
    They look like a well organised unit now that wont be push over for anyone.
    They will still disappoint .
    We are Scotland , its our birth right

    yeah they definitely look a different prospect now than a couple of years ago. you can't blame us for being pleased though when it could have been Italy or Portugal away

    You'd think all 4 teams in our group will be quite happy with that draw when Spain and Italy were options.

    The only thing in our favour is two home games really, other than that I think it's very tight. Very glad we won't have to play Scotland in Scotland the way they've been playing recently.

    Agreed .
    I think all 4 teams have won a watch in our little group.
    No reason any one from the 4 cant go through. Well maybe Austria

    Sorry Jimmy, but I think the penalty kick has done Scotland lots of favours down the years, not just against Wales.

    In fairness this is hardly much of an achievement.

    Whilst I think Wales get over hyped, especially on here. Scotland beating Moldova and the Faroe Islands twice, is taking the biscuit on how all of a sudden some think they are good. Scotland are defiantly improved but one of the weakest in the play off's. They were garbage in the Euro Cup despite playing 2 games at home

    If you beat the Ukraine then it will be a worry.

    Are Wales overhyped? I think Wales get a fair bit of disrespect, still the same old "one man team" jibes etc even though we've been ranked in the top 25 for about 6 years, lost just the one home qualifier since 2014 and been promoted to League A of the Nations League.
