Scotland top their Euro 2024 qualfying group after four wins from four; they are away to Cyprus in their next qualifier on Friday night; victory could see Steve Clarkes side secure their place while playing England in a friendly on September 12
"We have to stay humble and show humility so going into this game is all about hard work, our players being focused, and making sure all our efforts go into this game."Cyprus currently sit bottom of Scotland's qualifying group after three defeats but Carver, who had a spell managing Omonia Nicosia, does not expect it to be a straightforward night.
"We know how difficult it's going to be. I know Cypriot football pretty well and the standard's got much better in recent times. "Normally the crowd are quite intimidating but for the national team it isn't as bad, it's more families and children who go and watch. "The most important thing is going to be the heat, it will be hot and the pitch will probably be dry. It's something we'll have to deal with, but we've got great conditions [in Scotland] at the moment and we're acclimatising."
