Would there be Rayleigh scattering in an atmosphere of sulfur dioxide?

Can a planet with a dense atmosphere composed mainly of sulfur dioxide have a blue sky like Earth's due to Rayleigh scattering? Or would the composition change the color of the sky? I mean, it's well known that methane is responsible for the bluish colors of the atmospheres of the icy giants of the solar system, Uranus and Neptune, so it's logical to think that a planet with a significant amount of methane in its atmosphere would have a blue-green sky, would the same thing happen in a planet with a dense atmosphere of sulfur dioxide?
