UEFA have confirmed that the two unsuccessful semi-finalists in the FIFA World Cup play-off semi-finals will play a friendly match against each other on the date of the play-off final.

Scotland will play Ukraine on Thursday, 24 March at Hampden, with the winner due to travel to play the winner of the other semi-final fixture between Wales and Austria in the play-off final.

Should Scotland not progress from their fixture against Ukraine, they would then travel to either Wales or Austria to play the other unsuccessful semi-finalist in a friendly fixture on Tuesday, 29 March.

The focus of everyone within the Scotland camp remains on winning the FIFA World Cup play-off semi-final fixture and securing qualification for a first FIFA World Cup since 1998.
