Scotland manager Steve Clarke named his opening World Cup XI featuring goalkeeper Craig Gordon, defenders Robertson, Hickey, Hendry and Hanley, midfielders McTominay and McGinn alongside Ferguson, Adams and Doak in attacking positions, with Shankland leading the line.
Haiti's starting eleven includes goalkeeper Placide, defenders Arquus, Ade, Delcroix and Experience, midfielders Bellgarde and Jean-Jacques, and attacking players Didson, Providence, Izidor and Pierro. The nation brings attacking intent to its first Group C test against the Scots.
Scotland midfielder Scott McTominay's inclusion signals full recovery from recent fitness concerns, crucial for a squad requiring early points in the group stage. Referee Moustafa Ghorbal of Algeria will oversee proceedings at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, with kickoff scheduled for 4:00 AM Moscow Standard Time on June 14.
Victory positions either team favorably for subsequent matches. Scotland proceed to face Morocco on June 20 and Brazil on June 25, while Haiti play the Selecao on June 20 and Morocco on June 25. McTominay's confirmed availability reshapes Scottish group-stage winning expectations and affects midfield-focused betting lines.
