Scotland will have fewer than 300 fans in Moldova next month as Steve Clarke’s side look to secure their spot in the World Cup playoffs – with the Tartan Army only allocated 294 tickets for the November 12 clash.
Moldova will host Scotland at the 10400-capacity Zimbru Stadium but, due to Covid restrictions, the ground will only be half-full at best – Moldova’s tie against Denmark last month attracted a crowd of only 2,642.

Tickets priced £5 go on sale from Thursday to the 27000 members of the Scotland Supporters Club.
