Scotland and Liechtenstein will be meeting for the first time when they continue their campaigns in UEFA EURO 2012 qualifying Group I.

Team news
• Rangers FC defender Steven Whittaker is rated as "touch and go" by Craig Levein after being forced off with a calf strain in the final minute of Friday's goalless draw in Lithuania. Kirk Broadfoot has returned to Rangers with an ankle injury, while Scott Brown, Lee Wallace and Kevin McNaughton are all looking to shake off minor niggles. Goalkeeper David Marshall returned to his club with an elbow injury and has been replaced by Iain Turner.

• "The result is obviously the most important thing but I am looking to see if there is something there we can build on and the answer is most definitely 'yes'," said Levein after the Lithuania game."I'm a little bit disappointed with the final result – all we lacked was a goal – but otherwise I was delighted with the effort of my players."

• Bidu Zaugg can breathe a sigh of relief as Lucas Eberle and Yves Oehri are both available despite being taken off injured in Friday's 4-0 defeat by holders Spain. "It will be important to survive their early attacks," said Zaugg ahead of the Scotland game. "I am convinced that if we succeed in doing that we will get space and chances to attack ourselves."
