Cyprus vs Scotland preview
Steve Clarke's men are looking to keep the feel-good factor going as they canter towards a Euro 2024 spot.
Scotland have won four from four to start qualification and making it an incredible five on the bounce would (surely) all but secure a spot in Germany next year.
The latest double header saw a sensational finish in Norway with Lyndon Dykes and Kenny McLean bagging late goals in a memorable turnaround.
With a home tie against the Norwegians and trip to Spain to come, a win here would go some way to ensuring qualification is heading Scotland's way.
Cyprus have only scored twice in their three games to date and prop up the rest of the group having failed to collect a single point yet.
John McGinn opened the scoring in the first half the last time the sides met on matchday one of qualifying, before a late Scott McTominay double wrapped up the points at Hampden.
Incredibly, that ended a four-match streak of Scotland beating the Cypriots by a 2-1 scoreline.
Clarke will be hoping this one is wrapped up well before the closing minutes this time around, with an exciting clash with England to come next midweek.

Cyprus vs Scotland betting tips
Packed price
Having traveled to Norway and hosted Spain, for Scotland to have only conceded one goal speaks volumes.
A place like Cyprus in the past would've struck fear in the Tartan Army but they can surely be looking forward to this one.
Going forward, Scotland have shown they have goals in them too, which makes this bet a sound one.

Talisman
There's some fitness concerns in the forward areas, so it remains to be seen who is fit enough to lead the line.
One thing is for sure, Super John McGinn will be playing the supporting role in behind.
Had a huge part to play in the Norway turnaround and has been the go-to man under Steve Clarke.
No surprise to see him step up here and the odds on offer are particularly good, knowing fine well he'll be starting.
