Scotland were beaten 3-0 by Switzerland in their last home game - they haven't lost back-to-back competitive home games since June 2019 when they were defeated by Russia and Belgium.

Slovenia have just two wins in their past 13 matches in all competitions (D6 L5), with defeats in four of their past seven away games (W1 D2).
