But the visit of Poland, who have been given a bye in the World Cup Qualifiers due to sanctions against Russia, will be a fantastic way for Steve Clarke's side to prepare for some big games to come.
Czesław Michniewicz's team are one place behind Ukraine and 12 above Scotland in the FIFA rankings but have not beaten their hosts since 1990 – with both of the pair's two previous meetings ending in 2-2 draws.
If those games are anything to go by, we can expect goals at Hampden Park on Thursday evening.

Our prediction: Scotland v Poland
Up until a few months ago, both teams would have been expecting to be battling to keep their World Cup dreams alive this week but they'll now have to wait a little while longer to do so.
It should be a fairly even game at Hampden Park on Thursday – with keeping Robert Lewandowski quiet the task that, while obvious, should prove key to Scotland's hopes of a win.
The game won't have the intensity of a World Cup play-off tie, which should mean we get a more open and attacking contest but both teams will still be determined to come away with a win ahead of the big fixtures to come.
The last two games between the pair have finished 2-2 and it may play out that way again on Thursday.
Our prediction: Scotland 2-2 Poland (16/1atBet365)
