Argentinian left-back Alexandro Bernabei also makes a rare start in place of the injured Greg Taylor while Matt O’Riley and Liel Abada, who came on and scored in the 5-1 win over St Mirren in Paisley at the weekend, are in for the kick-off.

TEAM: Hart; Ralston, Carter-Vickers, Starfelt, Bernabei; Mooy, McGregor, O’Riley; Abada, Kyogo, Maeda. Subs: Bain, Johnston, Haksabanovic, Turnbull, Jota, Kobayashi, Oh, Iwata, Hatate.
