Haiti starting lineup vs Scotland confirmed for FIFA World Cup 2026 clash

This will be the first-ever clash between these teams.

The Haiti national football team is now all set to make an impact at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. They will face the Scotland national football team in their opening game of the mega competition at the Boston Stadium.

The Sébastien Migné-led side was involved in two international friendlies ahead of the flagship tournament. They secured a dominant 4-0 win against New Zealand, but faced a 1-2 loss against Peru. This shows that they lack consistency and that can be a problem for them.

The Scotland national football team have secured back-to-back wins in their last two matches and are going to be a tough challenge for Haiti. Les Grenadiers have a decent lineup. They have a strong attack, but need to work on establishing ball control during the game.

Thoughts on the lineup

Between the sticks, it will be Johny Placide. He will also don the captain’s armband for the Haiti national football team.

In the defence, Carlens Arcus, Ricardo Ade, Hannes Delcroix and Martin Experience are likely to start.

Establishing control in the midfield will be an important factor, where Don Deedson, Jean-Riccner Bellegrade, Danley Jean Jacques and Ruben Providence will be present.

There will be two strikers in the attacking front. Wilson Isidor and Frantzdy Pierrot will have the responsibility to fire the ball at the back of the net.
