CELTIC double-act Kieran Tierney and Anthony Ralston are among the stand-by squad for Scotland’s World Cup qualifier against Greece at Hampden tonight.
Team chief Steve Clarke has given the full-back berths to Aaron Hickey and captain Andy Robertson in the first of the crucial double-header with Belarus due at the national stadium on Sunday.
The Scots have already picked up four points after their draw in Denmark and win in Belarus and are aiming for a maximum six points in the next two encounters on home soil.
MY BALL…Anthony Ralston in action against Greece in March.
However, Clarke realises only the best will suffice against a country that romped to a 3-0 success at the venue in the Nations League in March.
Angus Gunn gets the nod to start in goal with Grant Hanley and John Souttar joining Hickey and Robertson in the back four.
Lewis Ferguson, Scott McTominay and John McGinn are the midfield trio, with Ryan Christie and Ben Gannon-Doak supporting striker Che Adams.
The full matchday squad is: Gunn; Hickey, Hanley, Souttar, Robertson; McGinn, Ferguson, McTominay; Gannon-Doak, Adams, Christie. Subs: Kelly, Gordon, Tierney, Ralston, Gilmour, Dykes, Hendry, Miller, McKenna, Hirst, Bowie and McLean.
