Liam Cooper also came off the bench but went off again with an injury which renders him doubftul for the match. Goalkeeper Angus Gunn is likely to return between the sticks after Zander Clark was given the nod against Gibraltar. Anthony Ralston, Greg Taylor and Jack Hendry were unused subs so could into the reckoning for a start.
