If the United States loses to Scotland in their international friendly on Saturday night, they will have absolutely no excuses to justify a defeat to a nation that the Americans have to beat if they expect to become a legitimate threat in world football.

The United States will look to extend their winning streak to five games, with their most recent triumph coming against Italy back in February.



Manager Jurgen Klinsmann has many of his best players available for this match, including star players Landon Donovan of the Los Angeles Galaxy and Tim Howard of Everton.

With a strong lineup against an inferior opponent, there's no reason for the United States to lose to the Scottish squad.

The Americans have the advantage in nearly every area on the pitch, and have several players who can score goals even against some of the world's best defensive sides such as Italy.



With Tim Howard also making a strong name for himself in England as a top goalkeeper, the United States could very well keep a clean sheet in this match.

Donovan has a wealth of experience on the international stage, and will certainly be a threat to score throughout this match.

Losing to Scotland would be a major step back for the United States after a number of impressive victories since Klinsmann took over as manager for Bob Bradley last year.

The Americans will have no excuses if they lose to Scotland, because there is no way with the amount of talent the United States have that they should be upset in this match.
