Hello and welcome to tonight's live coverage of the Euro 2020 qualifier between Scotland and Russia from Hampden Park.
Scotland will look to get their Group I campaign back on track as they try to cut the gap between themselves and Russia.Manager Steve Clarke will not want to put too much pressure on his players but tonight's encounter is one they need to win if Scotland want to progress in the competition.
Scotland have won three of their last five matches, but they were comfortably beaten by Belgium last time out. However, Russia's form is impressive in recent months thanks to three wins in a row.
SUBS: Craig MacGillivray, Matt Phillips, Ryan Christie, Ryan Jack, Greg Taylor, Jon McLaughlin, Stuart Armstrong, David Bates, Robert Snodgrass, Johnny Russell, Kenny McLean, Michael Devlin.
SCOTLAND (4-3-3): David Marshall; Stephen O'Donnell, Charlie Mulgrew, Liam Cooper, Andrew Robertson (C); Scott McTominay, John McGinn, Callum McGregor, James Forrest, Oliver McBurnie, Ryan Fraser.
RUSSIA (4-2-3-1): Guilherme; Mario Fernandes, Andrey Semenov, Georgi Dzhikiya, Fedor Kudryashov; Magomed Ozdoev, Roman Zobnin; Aleksey Ionov, Aleksandr Golovin, Yuri Zhirkov; Artem Dzuyba (C).
SUBS: Aleksandr Erokhin, Denis Cheryshev, Sergey Petrov, Vyacheslav Karavaev, Maksim Belyaev, Roman Neustadter, Andrey Lunev, Anton Miranchuk, Dimitri Barinov, Fedor Smolov, Soslan Dzhanaev, Ilzat Akhmetov.
Both teams are now on the field of play, and we are now just waiting for the national anthems before the match can begin.
The likes of McGregor, Fraser and Forrest need to help McBurnie more in the final third and Clarke may need to make changes to strengthen his team's chances. Russia's experience is starting to come to the fore, and it promises to be a tense second half.
That is all for tonight folks, thanks for joining us. Goodbye!
Clarke will have learned a lot about his team tonight, but he will also accept that Russia were just a level about his side. While Russia are still riding on a high after reaching the quarter-finals of the 2018 World Cup, Scotland are still a work in progress after a tough few years.
