A huge clash for Scotland as they host Israel for this UEFA Euro 2020 Play-Off semi-final. A win will take them into the final, where they will face either Norway or Serbia on November 12. 

The winner of this clash will also have the disadvantage of being guests in the final. Norway are heavy favourites to win the other clash, meaning Scotland would likely face Erling Haaland & Co in Oslo in a one-off shot for Euro 2020 participation. A tough task but not beyond the realms of possibility. 

Steve Clarke's side are favourites to reach the November showpiece, thanks to their superior status in the FIFA world rankings. Scotland, in 49th position, sit 43 places higher than their opponents and know they have the talent in their squad to cause headaches for tonight's visitors.

Scotland will be desperate to reach Euro 2020, having not reached a major tournament since the World Cup in France back in 1998. They have reached seven other major tournaments in their long history, though have never made it beyond the group stage in any of them. 

Scotland fans will know the side has a huge job on its hands over the coming weeks. Win this clash, though, and fans can start to dream. 

Kick-off is at 7.45pm BST and the game is being shown on Sky Sports Premier Main Event in the UK. See below for watching details where you are.

Use a VPN to watch a Scotland vs Israel live stream live stream from outside your country

If you’re on holiday or just simply out of the country, your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows exactly where you are from your IP address. Your access to the game will be automatically blocked, which is annoying if you’ve paid a subscription fee and don't want to use an illegal, buffering stream that makes you miss another Jamie Vardy goal. And that's where we recommend ExpressVPN (more on which below). 

All you need to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to get beyond such aggravations (assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs). A VPN creates a private connection between your device and the internet, meaning suppliers can’t work out where you are and what you’re doing. The info going to and from is entirely encrypted.

There are plenty of options out there, including:
