Scotland take on Ukraine in a much anticipated World Cup play-off semi-final at Hampden Park but who would you pick to start on Wednesday?
The match could see Steve Clarke’s side take a huge step towards ending that 24-year wait to reach the finals of the tournament which gets underway in November in Qatar.
Scotland – who are unbeaten in eight matches – will be cheered on by a sellout crowd at the national stadium, with Wales awaiting the winners in Cardiff four days later.

So who will play? Well, there will be a change at the back with Arsenal defender Kieran Tierney left out of this squad after knee surgery.
Liam Cooper and Scott McKenna are natural left-sided alternatives who could slot into Clarke’s favoured back three.
