Scotland recall seasoned campaigners

Kenny Miller, Christian Dailly and Gary Naysmith have returned to the Scotland squad for their crucial Group B double header against Ukraine and Georgia.

Fletcher unfit
Manchester United FC midfielder Darren Fletcher misses out through injury, but Miller has been recalled after sitting out the 1-0 win against France at the Parc des Princes on 12 September. There is also a recall for experienced defenders Dailly and Naysmith with the injured Russell Anderson dropping out. Scotland currently top Group B with 21 points and require seven points from their final three fixtures to qualify for UEFA EURO 2008™. Scotland meet Ukraine at Hampden Park on 13 October and then travel to Tblisi to take on Georgia four days later.
