Day 14 of the World Cup wraps up the preliminary stage for Groups A, B and C.
Tournament co-host Canada faces Switzerland for first place in Group B, with Canada star Alphonso Davies expected to play, while Bosnia and Herzegovina and Qatar need a result to keep their knockout-round hopes alive.
Scotland is an underdog but can advance against a Brazil team featuring Vinícius Júnior and chasing first place in Group C, while Morocco, led by Achraf Hakimi, faces already-eliminated Haiti.
