Twenty-eight years on from their last World Cup, Steve Clarke’s Scotland are back on the biggest stage of all, and an old foe is waiting in the final round of Group C: Brazil. The five-time champions were in that 1998 group too, and they beat the Scots that day.
Carlo Ancelotti’s side start the rematch as heavy favourites. It all plays out on Wednesday 24 June, kick-off 11pm BST, at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens. On a sticky Florida night, Scotland chase the upset of a generation, while Brazil look to sign off the group stage in style. Below are the latest Scotland vs Brazil betting odds for this World Cup 2026 Group C finale.
Scotland vs Brazil – Betting Odds
Each market is explained comprehensively for those who have never tried betting, plus the current prices set out in tables so you can compare at a glance.
1X2 Betting Odds
The 1X2 is the most basic market in football betting. You are backing one of three results: a home win (marked 1), a draw (marked X), or an away win (marked 2). For the World Cup, the “1” and “2” are used for the teams listed first and second, respectively.
One thing worth knowing is that the 1X2 settles on the score after 90 minutes plus stoppage time, what bookmakers call normal time. Extra time and penalties do not count towards it.
The odds tell you how likely the bookmaker thinks each result is, and what you would get back: shorter prices mean a more likely outcome and a smaller return, longer prices a less likely outcome and a bigger return.
With Brazil rated streets ahead here, the Scotland vs Brazil odds for the 1X2 market look like this:
| Scotland win (1) | Draw (X) | Brazil win (2) |
| 13/2 | 4/1 | 1/3 |
Double Chance Odds
Double chance is a safer version of the 1X2. Instead of picking one result from three, you back two of them in a single bet, which means there is only one way for your selection to lose. You are essentially covering two of the three boxes at once.
There are three combinations. 1X covers the home win or the draw, so it wins unless the away side win. 12 covers either team to win, so it wins on any result except the draw. X2 covers the draw or the away win, so it wins unless the home side take all three points. Pick whichever pair matches what you expect to happen.
The catch is in the price. Because you are covering two outcomes, the bet wins far more often than a straight pick, so the odds are much shorter and the reward smaller. On a lopsided match like this one, backing the favourite not to lose prices up very tightly indeed.
| 1X – Scotland or draw | 12 – Scotland or Brazil | X2 – Draw or Brazil |
| 12/7 | 1/7 | 1/11 |
Handicap Betting Odds
A handicap bet is built for exactly this kind of mismatch, where one side is so strongly fancied that the plain match-result odds offer very little. The bookmaker hands one team a virtual head start or deficit in goals, and you bet on the result once that adjustment is applied.
The favourite gets a minus figure (a deficit to overcome). The underdog gets a plus figure (a cushion to start with). Because Brazil are such strong favourites, the Scotland vs Brazil odds on the straight 1X2 leave almost no value on the obvious result, so the handicap is where punters tend to go instead.
With Brazil -1, one goal is effectively wiped off their tally before kick-off, so they must win by two clear goals or more for the bet to win. If they win by exactly one, the adjusted score finishes level: that is a “push”, and your stake is refunded. Scotland +1 starts the Scots a goal to the good, so it wins if Scotland win or draw, pushes if they lose by exactly one, and loses only if Brazil win by two or more.
You will also see quarter lines such as +1.25 and -1.25, which look odd until you know the trick: they split your stake across the two nearest half-goal lines. So Scotland +1.25 is really half your money on +1 and half on +1.5, which means you can land a full win, a full loss, or a half-and-half result.
If Scotland were to lose by exactly one goal, the +1 half would push (refunded) and the +1.5 half would win, leaving you a half-win overall.
| Scotland +1.25 | Brazil –1.25 |
| 10/11 | 10/13 |
| Scotland +1 | Brazil –1 |
| 27/20 | 6/11 |
Both Teams to Score (BTTS) Odds
Both Teams to Score asks a single, simple question: will both sides find the net at least once? You are not betting on who wins or by how much, only on whether each team manages a goal.
A “Yes” needs both teams to score at least one goal, so results like 1-1, 2-1 and 3-2 all win it. A “No” wins the moment one team is kept out, which means 1-0, 2-0 and the goalless 0-0 are all “No” results.
The appeal of BTTS is that your bet can stay alive even when your fancied team is losing, because all you need is a goal, which can happen even at the very last minute.
| Yes | No |
| 9/8 | 11/17 |
Goal Total (Over/Under) Odds
The goal total market is a bet on the combined number of goals scored by both teams. The bookmaker sets a line, and you decide whether the match will finish above or below it. By far the most common line is 2.5 goals.
“Over 2.5” wins if the game produces three goals or more. “Under 2.5” wins if there are two goals or fewer, so 0, 1 or 2 in total.
You may be wondering about that 0.5: it is there on purpose. Since no one can score half a goal, the line can never be matched exactly, so the bet always settles cleanly as a win or a loss with no push to worry about.
You can choose other lines as well, like 1.5, 3.5 or 4.5, but 2.5 is the most common for a typical fixture and the one most punters use.
| Over 2.5 goals | Under 2.5 goals |
| 20/27 | 20/21 |

Correct Score Odds
Correct score is the market that asks for the exact final result: not just the winner, but the precise scoreline. Predicting 1-0, 2-1 or 1-1 correctly is a very different challenge from simply backing a team to win.
It is the hardest of the common markets, and that is the whole point of it. So many scorelines are realistically possible that each one is priced long, which is exactly why correct score offers the biggest returns.
Get the score spot on and the payout is excellent, but a single extra goal, even one in your own team’s favour, is enough to lose the bet.
The table below features a handful of popular scorelines for this match, but you can back any result you like.
| 0–0 | 1–1 | 0–1 Brazil | 1–2 Brazil |
| 12/1 | 17/2 | 5/1 | 15/2 |
All of the odds above were correct at the time of writing. Prices move constantly in the build-up to kick-off, especially once late team news lands, so always check the current Scotland vs Brazil odds on 7bet before you stake.
