Scotland have been handed a favourable opening fixture and should be confident of collecting all three points. Steve Clarke's side have developed into a disciplined and competitive international team, boasting quality throughout the squad with players competing regularly in the Premier League and top European leagues.
Haiti deserve credit for reaching the World Cup, but they face a significant step up in class here. Scotland possess greater organisation, physicality and experience at this level, which should allow them to control proceedings for large spells.
The Scots have shown they can compete with stronger nations than Haiti in recent years and, provided they approach the game professionally, they should create enough chances to secure a comfortable victory. Their defensive structure is also likely to frustrate a Haitian side that may struggle to generate clear opportunities
