What channel is Scotland Under-21s vs Bulgaria on? TV, live stream details for opening qualifying clash

Scotland Under-21s face Bulgaria away in their European Championship qualifying campaign on Tuesday, October 6, 2026, kicking off at 5:30 pm UK time at Stadion Georgi Benkovski. The match will not be broadcast on traditional television in the United Kingdom or the Republic of Ireland, but fans can stream it live on the Scotland National Team's official YouTube channel, while Diema Sport holds broadcast rights in Bulgaria.

Head coach Tony Docherty's side enters the fixture following a 5-2 victory against Azerbaijan at Rugby Park, featuring goals from Tyler Fletcher, Bobby Wales, James Wilson, and two from Barney Stewart. Despite the win, Czechia's 1-0 result against Bulgaria eliminated Scotland from playoff contention, leaving Docherty's squad playing to conclude the qualifying group on a high note.
