Today's Portugal vs Scotland live stream sees the home side look to make it two wins from two games and inflict yet more misery on the visitors who lost their opening game in heartbreaking fashion Below we have all the information on how to watch Portugal vs Scotland from anywhere in the world with details on worldwide TV channels, broadcasters, free streams and start times.

Cristiano Ronaldo grabbed all the headlines as the Nations League got underway last week, becoming the first player to score 900 top-level career goals as Portugal secured a 2-1 win over Croatia. The 39-year-old now has 131 goals for the national side and will be confident of adding to that tally against a Scotland side low on confidence. 

The Scots had recovered from 2-0 down in their opener against Poland, but conceded a heartbreaking 97th minute penalty as they succumbed to a 3-2 defeat. Manager Steve Clarke will have to lift the spirit of his players as they will not want to start life in the top tier of the Nations League with consecutive defeats.

Here's how the teams will line up: 

Portugal XI: Costa; Semedo, Dias, Silva, Mendes; Palhinha, Fernandes, Silva; Neto, Jota, Leao

Subs: Sa, Silva, Dalot, Ronaldo, Gonclaves, Felix, Veiga, Santos, Neves, Trincao, Neves, Quenda

Scotland XI: Gunn; Ralston, Hanley, McKenna, Robertson; Gilmour, McLean, Christie; McTominay, Dykes

Subs: McCracken, Clark, Shankland, Doig, Barron, Porteous, Souttar, Doak, Morgan, Conway, Gauld, Johnston
