Haiti vs Scotland — World Cup 2026

Tale of the tape.

Last five walks into the room.

Who's hotter going in? Latest competitive results, newest first.

Three duels that decide it.

// Centre-forward vs Centre-back · Aerial authority

F. Pierrot

#20 · FW · AEK Athens FC

VS

J. Souttar

#15 · DF · Rangers

Pierrot carries Haiti's attacking threat, but Souttar's physicality and reading of the game at Rangers suggest the Scottish centre-back will dominate the aerial battle. Scotland's experience in a tougher league gives the edge.

// Central midfield · Tempo control

D. Jean-Jacques

#17 · MF · Philadelphia Union

VS

J. McGinn

#7 · MF · Aston Villa

McGinn's Premier League pedigree and press resistance at Aston Villa will likely suffocate Jean-Jacques's rhythm. Haiti's midfielder will struggle to find space against a player of McGinn's intensity and technical quality.

// Left winger vs Left-back · Width and recovery

L. Deedson

#11 · FW · Odense

VS

A. Robertson

#3 · DF · Liverpool

Robertson's world-class positioning and recovery pace for Liverpool make him a formidable obstacle. Deedson will need to exploit the space quickly; the Liverpool fullback's one-on-one defending rarely wavers in high-stakes competition.

Haiti vs Scotland: A clash of philosophies

Haiti arrives with aggressive intent under Migné—pressing high and looking to turn over possession into quick attacks. Scotland, under McLeish, builds patiently from the back and controls the tempo through midfield craft.
