Scotland hatch plan to stop Bale
Assistant manager Mark McGhee says Scotland have a plan to deal with Gareth Bale when they face Wales in Glasgow on Friday.
Gordon Strachan's second in command is confident that the hosts can stop the winger and insists that they will carry their own threat as well.
"I've been watching a lot of Gareth Bale recently. We will have a plan to deal with him but we are the team and will exert our own pressure," McGhee told reporters.
"I've seen teams who have dealt with Bale's quality. I don't think we will be man-marking him.

The Roma forward already has 58 caps for his country, but his national team coach is open to the idea of a recall - even though the player officially retired in 2007.
"If we qualify for the World Cup then I'll take a look at what shape he is in," the 55-year-old coach told reporters.
"He is proving to be in exceptional physical condition," Prandelli said.

Georgia comes first, then Spain
Didier Deschamps has warned his players not to think about Spain ahead of their World Cup 2014 qualifier against Georgia on Friday.
France, who sit second in Group I behind Spain, will take on Georgia on March 22 and the table-toppers just four days later.
And Deschamps is worried his players may be distracted by the prospect of facing Vicente Del Bosque's side, rather than focusing on the task at hand.
"We must focus our energy on the Georgia game to win. Though Spain is in their minds," the 44-year-old told reporters at a press conference.

Juventus aim to thwart Conte interest
Juventus may insert a buyout clause into the contract of coach Antonio Conte after he revealed his discontent with football in Italy.
Conte's display of anger at his press conference after the 2-0 victory at Bologna on Saturday has put the club's board on high alert, with Chelsea and Real Madrid thought to be considering the former Juve midfielder as a possible answer to their coaching worries.
The 43-year-old, who had earlier been chastised by opposition coach Stefano Pioli for over-exuberant celebrations at the full-time whistle, used his media commitments as a platform to air his grievances with some of the ills in the Italian game at present.
