After coming up against a former team-mate in Maxi Oyedele, who earned his first senior cap for Poland on Saturday, another ex-Red stands in Portugal’s way in Glasgow, with Scott McTominay the key man for Steve Clarke’s men.
“Scotland will be a different type of game and we expect it to be difficult,” admitted Dalot. “There will be a good atmosphere, which is typical of British football and stadiums. But we enjoy it when it’s passionate like that.
