    There are a total of 210 FIFA ranked national men's teams.

    Gibraltar are ranked 203.

    Scotland only managed a 2-0 win at home against them on Monday too. Perhaps Gib have found some defensive resolve from somewhere all of a sudden?

    Scotland played them in Faro too so technically away - though neither at home really.

    I’m not sure Gibraltar have improved that much - I’d suggest the opposition on both occasions just wasn’t good enough.

    Ah, wasn't aware of that, just saw Scotland named first on the result and assumed a home game.

    We're a team in transition!

    GIBRALTAR v CYMRU

    ''An experimental Wales line-up will be fronted by up Bolton Wanderers midfielder Josh Sheehan, who will take the armband on what will be his first international start.

    A number of first-team stars are missing for this clash, including captain Aaron Ramsey, goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey, full-back Neco Williams and midfielders David Brooks and Harry Wilson.
    Six uncapped players will be hoping to make their international bow, including Lewis Koumas, Charlie Crew, Jay Dasilva, Fin Stevens, Tom King and Matt Baker.''

    Thought Koumas changed the game a bit when he came on too

    Developing nations, eh? Let them thrash it out for four years; best of the lot gets a wildcard into the World Cup.

    Currently that is Luxembourg

    It's always the same with the Faroe Islands and San Marino.
    Its not a case of if you can beat these teams, but by how many goals.
