Former Scotland international Don Hutchison has backed the current team to beat England in tonight's friendly at Celtic Park.

Hutchison scored the only goal of the game the last time that the Scots defeated their rivals back in 1999.

The Tartan Army have enjoyed a resurgence since Gordon Strachan took over as manager last year and Hutchison believes that the hosts will continue their good form with a victory over the Three Lions.

"I'm predicting a 2-1 home win," he told Sky Sports News. "I've been watching Scotland since Gordon Strachan's been involved and they've been different class.

"Tonight should be a cracker. The momentum that we've got under Gordon Strachan, the wins that we've had, some of the performances, the way we play football [has been great]."

Hutchison scored six goals in 26 appearances for Scotland between 1999 and 2003.
