UEFA Under-19 EURO 2027 Qualifier: Round 1 Scotland v Poland Tuesday, 31 March 2026 - 7pm kick off The Albert Bartlett Stadium, Airdrie

Scotland Men's Under-19s return to action on home soil later this month with a Round 1 qualifier for next summer's Under-17 European Championships which will take place in Czechia.

The Young Scots will feature in League A of the qualifiers, owing to Scotland Under-17s' strong performance 12 months ago, when we finished with seven points from three matches against Romania, North Macedonia and Liechtenstein to top the group.

Neil McFarlane's side take on Italy in the opener at The Albert Bartlett Stadium in Airdrie on Wednesday, 25 March.

Scotland then play Republic of Ireland three days later in Kirkintilloch before rounding off the campaign against Poland on Tuesday, 31 March back in Airdrie.

The top three teams in Group A2 will remain in League A for the Round 2 qualifiers later in the year, with the fourth placed team dropping into League B.

Scotland were last in action back in November when we were unable to progress through to the Elite Round for the 2026 European Championships.

McFarlane has named a squad of 20 for the matches, which will all be free for supporters.
