Record Sport's writers are confident tonight is the night a dreary run comes to an end.
And Hampden is sure to be bouncing tonight as Steve Clarke and his troops look to end a six-game run that will be rankling and get back into the habit of winning. Northern Ireland are the opponents in Glasgow as we return to a more winnable game, on the face of it at least, after a string of games that have seen Scotland test themselves against the very best.
