Former England goalkeeper David Seaman says games against Scotland are stressful for players and fans alike ahead of Friday's World Cup Qualifier.
Seaman made some vital saves, including a Gary McAllister penalty, when the two sides met during Euro 96 as England won 2-0 at Wembley.
"They're stressful games because you know what's at stake, for the fans as well," Seaman told Sky Sports News HQ.
"It's like when I used to play in the north London derby, there was massive pressure but you want to do it for the fans and it's the same with Scotland.
"You want to do it for yourself as well, because if you don't, you get quite a lot of stick off the Scottish people.
"The first one [England v Scotland game] I played in was Euro 96, which was like another pressure as well.
"We had started the tournament with a 1-1 draw against Switzerland and went into the Scotland game needing a win."
Seaman also played a crucial role when the sides met again three years later in the two-legged play-off for Euro 2000.
England won the opening encounter 2-0 at Hampden Park and with Scotland leading 1-0 in the return fixture at Wembley and pushing for a goal to level the tie, Seaman made a stunning save to keep out Christian Dailly's header and help his side qualify for the finals in Belgium and the Netherlands.
"We were under pressure and we weren't playing well. I just saw him coming in and he got a powerful header on it," added Seaman.
"Luckily it was just above me so I could get my hand up quickly and divert it over the bar with both hands.
"It was a big save and for us to qualify as well, but we didn't kick on from that [in the] the tournament but it's [the save is] up there with the best."
