Scotland were 2-0 winners against Belarus in Hungary in September
The Tartan Army have kept clean sheets in three of their last four games
Recommended bet: Scotland to win to nil
Having taken seven points from their first three games in Group C, Scotland have provided a platform to build on as they seek a place at next year's World Cup and they are a short price to make home advantage count against Belarus at Hampden Park.
The Tartan Army will know this is a must-win contest with fixtures with Greece and Denmark to come and they should be optimistic of their chances having won 2-0 on the road against Belarus in September.
Scotland sparked into life in the second half of Thursday's 3-1 win at home to the Greeks, with them coming from behind to get the job done, so confidence should be at an all-time high ahead of this challenge.
Belarus are proving out of their depth in World Cup qualifying, having lost all three matches which includes a 6-0 rout from Denmark earlier this week.

Team news
Ryan Christie and Lewis Ferguson both picked up yellow cards in the midweek win over Greece and are therefore suspended for this one.
Having limped off with a muscle injury, Aaron Hickey is also a major doubt for the visit of Belarus.
Belarus manager Carlos Alos may decide to make changes after Thursday’s heavy 6-0 defeat, but his options are limited given what is available to him, with FC Porto youngster Trofim Melnichenko likely to lead the line again.
The stats
Scotland have won three of their last four matches, which includes a 2-0 success over Belarus in September.
The Tartan Army have kept clean sheets in three of their last four games.
Belarus have lost their last four internationals, conceding 17 goals in the process, while they have failed to score in their last two defeats.
Both teams have scored in only one of the five previous meetings between the nations and six of Scotland's last 11 home matches have gone under 2.5 goals.

Prediction
With Denmark locking horns with Greece, there is every chance that Scotland could finish Sunday at the top of Group C and this should prove a straightforward task at home to Belarus.
Scotland defeated Belarus 2-0 on neutral soil in Hungary in September, with them restricting their opponents to only six shots throughout the match.
It may be harder for the visitors to create in front of a vocal Hampden Park crowd.
Scotland have kept three clean sheets in their last four matches, which includes holding the Danes to a goalless draw, so they should be up to the task of keeping Belarus at bay.
The White Wings had only one shot on target in Thursday's 6-0 dismantling by Denmark and that could have done severe damage to their waning confidence.
