Callum McGregor is back at Hampden this evening as the Celtic captain looks to cap off a stunning season with a win for Scotland against Georgia. The 30-year-old lifted a Treble and started in the win over Norway over in Oslo and in his final match of the 2022/23 season, McGregor could help Scotland take a step towards the European Championships with a victory.
Steve Clarke has named his side and it is clear that the Ayrshire-born manager is taking nothing for granted.
