Scotland will hope to bounce back from a difficult night against Iceland when they travel to Liechtenstein for the second part of a friendly double header on Monday. Steve Clarke's men hoped to take the first steps to moving on from their Nations League play-off defeat against Greece earlier this year when they faced Iceland at Hampden Park on Friday. However, a laboured display was duly punished by the visitors as a Lewis Ferguson own goal and a goal in each half from Andri Gudhjohnsen and Victor Palsson gave them a 3-1 win. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad A poor performance from goalkeeper Cieran Slicker dominated the headlines after the game - but in reality, Clarke's men got what they deserved from a game that posed more questions than provided answers. All thoughts now turn towards Monday's visit to Liechtenstein as Scotland prepare to take on a side that are sat between the Bahamas and Turks & Caicos Islands at 205th place in the official FIFA World rankings. Here is everything you need to know as Clarke's side look to avoid a third consecutive defeat. What has Steve Clarke said ahead of Liechtenstein v Scotland? Speaking to BBC Sport after Friday's defeat, Clarke said: 'I'm not so sure it was too much to do with the shape, we just looked a little bit flat at times, even when we back into the game we always looked a little bit flat. We made their goalkeeper work a few times, he made some good saves on the night. On another night, maybe you get those finishes and it's a different story. We will go away and look at the video but then in two days time we go to Liechtenstein and we have to get ready for that with hopefully a better result and a better performance. A win would be nice and if you get an improved performance you should get the win.' Where and when does Liechtenstein v Scotland get underway?
