1940–1959 Scotland National Football Team Results

This article lists the results for the Scotland national football team between 1940 and 1959.

Scotland did not play any official matches between 1940 and 1945 because competitive football was suspended for the duration of the Second World War. Several unofficial internationals, some known as Victory Internationals, were played during this time.
