The Scotland game has no fans because it is being played behind closed doors as a consequence of UEFA sanctions on Belarus. Belarus is banned from hosting home games in their own country due to their government's support for the Russian invasion of Ukraine. UEFA has mandated that all Belarusian clubs and national teams must play their home matches at neutral venues with no spectators allowed. For this reason, the Scotland vs. Belarus World Cup qualifier was held at the ZTE Arena in Zalaegerszeg, Hungary, without fans in attendance.
