GORDON STRACHAN has named his Scotland squad for the World Cup qualifying matches against Lithuania and Malta.
Six Celtic players have been called up for September's crunch matches, but there is no space for Callum McGregor.
Millwall goalkeeper Jordan Archer is the only uncapped member of the squad, while Hibernian's Steven Whittaker and Newcastle United pair Grant Hanley and Matt Ritchie have earned recalls.
Striker Steven Fletcher and West Brom winger Matt Phillips also return to the squad for the crucial double-header.
