Steve Clarke has named his Scotland side to take on Cyprus in the first of two Euro 2024 qualifying clashes this month.
The national team kick-off their campaign against Cyprus at Hampden this afternoon before facing Spain.
And Clarke has had a major decision to make on his No1 with Craig Gordon ruled out for the season through a horror double leg break.
Angus Gunn is the man Clarke has selected for the goalkeeping spot after battling it out with Zander Clark and Liam Kelly in training this week.
Clarke had stated it would be a difficult decision to select his new keeper. He said: “I’ve really enjoyed watching the three boys work this week because they’ve all tried every so hard to impress.
“They’ve all been really good in training. It’s a proper tough decision."
But it's Gunn who has been given the nod to start in goal with Andy Robertson, Kieran Tierney, Grant Hanley, Ryan Porteous and Aaron Hickey in defence.
John McGinn, Callum McGregor and Ryan Jack start in midfield with Stuart Armstrong supporting Che Adams up front.
SCOTLAND XI: Gunn, Robertson, Hanley, Tierney, McGinn, McGregor, Adams, Porteous, Armstrong, Jack, Hickey.
SUBS: Kelly, Clark, Patterson, McTominay, Dykes, Christie, Hyam, Gilmour, Cooper, Ferguson, Brown, McLean.
CYPRUS XI: Demetriou, Kousoulos, Gogic, Roberge, Antoniou, Kyriakou, Laifis, Artymatas, Ioannou, Kastanos, Pittas.
