Steve Clarke's side go into the all-important clash on the back of a 1-0 win over Moldova at Hampden on Saturday, which followed a disappointing defeat to Denmark last Wednesday.

Meanwhile, the Austrians, who are one point behind the Scots in the Group F standings, will be looking for a reaction to their 5-2 hammering in Israel at the weekend that has endangered their own World Cup hopes.

Scotland have drafted Hibs full-back Paul McGinn into the squad following the injury withdrawals of Nathan Patterson, Ryan Fraser and Kenny McLean all ruled out.
