Scotland Face Bolivia in Final World Cup Warm-Up at Sports Illustrated Stadium

Scotland are set to face Bolivia in their final warm-up match before the 2026 World Cup, with kick-off at 9:00pm BST on Saturday, 6 June at Sports Illustrated Stadium in New Jersey. Steve Clarke's side will be looking to build momentum ahead of their tournament opener against Haiti on June 14 — their first World Cup appearance since 1998.

The match is available free-to-air in the UK on BBC One Scotland and can be streamed via BBC iPlayer. A television licence and a BBC login are required to access the stream. Viewers in the United States can catch the action on ESPN+, with subscriptions starting at $29.99 per month.
Bolivia's injury concerns
Bolivia arrive at this fixture significantly weakened following their inter-continental play-off defeat against Iraq. Four players — Victor Abrego, Enzo Monteiro, Fernando Monteiro, and Juan Godoy — are absent from the squad, a notable setback for coach Oscar Villegas.
While Bolivia's midfield and defence carry experience, their attacking options are thin. Of the five forwards named in the squad for this game and the follow-up friendly against Algeria, only two have earned international caps previously.
Fletcher steps in for injured Gilmour
Scotland's preparations have been disrupted by a significant injury blow. Billy Gilmour sustained an injury during the previous match against Curacao and has been ruled out of the World Cup entirely.
Manchester United midfielder Tyler Fletcher — son of Old Trafford cult hero Darren Fletcher — has been called up as his replacement. Fletcher featured as part of an extended squad against Curacao and now earns a place in Clarke's World Cup party.
Match prediction
Scotland are expected to make light work of a depleted Bolivia side, with Lawrence Shankland among those tipped to find the net. FourFourTwo predict a 0-3 Scotland victory.
