'Big performance due Scotland's way'

Scotland are "due a big result" as Pedro Martinez Losa's side get set to host England in their final Women's Nations League Group A1 game on Tuesday.

That's according to BBC Scotland journalist and commentator Thomas Duncan, who told the Scottish Football Podcast that the national team have the chance to "do themselves justice" against the Auld Enemy at Hampden.

Scotland have already been resigned to bottom of the group and relegation into Nations League B for the next instalment of the tournament.

England are in need of a big win if they have any hope of pipping the Netherlands to the top spot, with ramifications for Team GB's hopes of being at the Paris Olympics next summer.

"I think England have struggled a bit since the come down from the World Cup, and they've obviously had a few injuries, but they would have expected to win this group," Duncan said.

"They obviously lost to Belgium, which was a big surprise, lost one to the Netherlands as well.

"It was a great comeback the other night [against the Netherlands] but I don't think they are firing on all cylinders. So that's an opportunity for Scotland, especially at home.

"I think the players deserve backing, especially in a big game like this, and I think they're due a big performance and a big result against a good side.

"It's been a while since the Scotland women's national team won a game that you wouldn't expect them to win. Where they've made a statement and they've kind of turned the odds and you go, wow, what a result that was.

"You're not guaranteed anything, but I feel like they're due a big performance. And hopefully it comes tomorrow night and they do themselves justice but England have got threats all over the pitch."
