Defenders Anthony Ralston and Greg Taylor plus midfielders Callum McGregor and David Turnbull have been given the nod by boss Steve Clarke for the crucial encounters.
The Scots face the Ukrainians at Hampden a week tomorrow and take on the Irish three days later at the same venue before travelling for the third ancounter a fortnight today in Poland, current temporary home of war-torn Ukraine.
