"Opening Sunday's showdown at Hampden sat in silver medal position in Group C, Steve Clarke's men will be desperate to widen their buffer over the chasing pack here. While the Tartan Army might have lost their elite Nations League status back in March as they were hit with a 3-1 aggregate defeat against Greece, the former Kilmarnock boss has seen his squad come roaring back in an eye-catching fashion."
"Both making an impact after coming off the bench against Greece on Thursday, the duo of Anthony Ralston and Napoli ace Billy Gilmour could be handed a full recall. Despite failing to make a a single appearance since completing a summer switch to Nottingham Forest, Angus Gunn should keep his spot between the sticks. Opening his World Cup qualifying account earlier in the week, Birmingham striker Lyndon Dykes could be handed the chance to lead the line at Hampden."
Scotland host Belarus at Hampden aiming for another crucial World Cup qualifying victory. Scotland recovered with a comeback 3-1 win over Greece and sit second in Group C with seven points from three games. Manager Steve Clarke's side lost Nations League status in March but have since improved. Potential recalls include Anthony Ralston and Billy Gilmour; Angus Gunn is expected to remain goalkeeper. Lyndon Dykes may lead the attack while Scott McTominay will anchor midfield. Belarus enter off heavy defeats, including 6-0 to Denmark and 5-1 to Greece, leaving them bottom of the group.
