Scotland will begin their 2024 Nations League campaign with an away match against Slovenia on 26 September, Uefa has confirmed. The national team faces a packed schedule, playing all six group matches within a three-month window that concludes with a trip to Switzerland on 16 November.

Drawn alongside Switzerland, Slovenia, and North Macedonia, Scotland returns to League B after relegation from League A following a play-off defeat by Greece last year. Head coach Steve Clarke described the group as evenly matched, noting the competition's historical importance in helping Scotland qualify for Euro 2020. The fixtures reunite Scotland with Switzerland after their 1-1 draw at Euro 2024 in Cologne.

The campaign includes matches against opponents Scotland hasn't faced in years, including North Macedonia since World Cup 2014 qualifiers. Group winners earn promotion, while fourth place results in automatic relegation to the tier below. Clarke's side will aim to navigate this challenging group and secure a strong position in the competition.
