Many in the squad believe they should already have a major tournament experience on their CV.

Two years ago, they could smell the 2023 World Cup but lost out in agonising fashion with a poor play-off performance at home to the Republic of Ireland.

A couple years before that, their 2022 Euros hopes ended after a lacklustre qualifying campaign – with Friday’s opponents Finland administering the deadly blow.

That means revenge could be in the air at Easter Road, the same venue as that painful 1-0 defeat nearly four years ago.

Marko Saloranta’s side are “no mugs”, though, according to Cuthbert.

“They’re an impressive team,” she said. “They’ve not gone to the last four out of five Euros for nothing, but I think the group is in a good place to deal with that.”

There has been a calmness and a confidence in the Scotland camp this week.

An unbeaten Nations League B campaign and a particularly impressive second leg victory against Hungary means they fear no-one.

Not even Finland.

“We’ve got ourselves into a position where we certainly feel confident but we have to go and earn it,” Cuthbert added. “We have to earn the right to play, earn the right to be at the European Championships.

“I don’t care whether it’s Finland or Hungary, I don’t care what nation, I just want to beat them and I want to go through.”
