A must win game for Scotland U21 if they want to qualify for Euro 2009.The first game in the group ended with 3-2 win for the Fins but they have scored their last goal in the last minute of the game.Scotland youngsters were down to 10 men with 10 minutes to go until the final minute and they totally deserved a draw.So they will be even more motivated from the start to beat Finland for this unlucky defeat.

I think that bookies are overrating Finland a lot.Indeed they are first in a group without defeat (4 wins and 1 draw) but they don't have the quality to keep with this kind of play.They won all of there matches with 1 goal difference.Accept two or three youngsters all of their players plays in their league.To compare the quality of this competition with SPL is stupid.Just three months before this campaign for Euro 2009 have started they lost to Russia U21 5-1 at home and this also proves that they don't posses the quality which the table shows.

Scotland will be without Steven Fletcher which is the only reason why am I not going with the full stakes.He has been called up for the senior squad.But they still have a quality attack with Rangers striker Steven Naismith leading the way.All of their youngsters plays regularly for solid SPL sides.I think that a quality and motivation are on their side to stop this ridicules Finland run.Home court has so often proved crucial for this U21 matches and that is another reason why am I predicting an easy win for the Scots.
