Celtic midfielder Nir Bitton admits returning after the international break is his "biggest nightmare" at the moment.
The Israeli international was part of the side which lost 3-2 to Scotland on Saturday, with Scott McTominay grabbing a last-gasp winner.
That result and a win over the Faroe Islands in midweek left Steve Clarke 's side on the brink of securing a play-off spot, while Bitton and co will have to hope for a favour from Moldova.
And Bitton confesses that returning to the scene of that Hampden heartbreak isn't exactly cheering him up after the international break.
He said: "The biggest nightmare for me is to return to Scotland right now.
"I have mixed feelings about the game because I think we played a relatively good match in Glasgow.
"There was an amazing atmosphere and their crowd pushed them to the end.
"I think towards the end of the game, Scotland really pressurised us and once again we lost out to a set-piece right at the end.
"It wasn't a great outcome.
"Then against Moldova, we also made it hard for ourselves. They even had a man sent off and we still let them score.
"We know we need to do better."
