MALKY Mackay has the chance to audition for the Scotland manager's job this week when the Netherlands visit the north-east.
The national team take on the Dutch at Pittodrie on Thursday in their first fixture since failing to qualify for next summer's World Cup finals in Russia.
Mackay will lead a new-look Scotland squad in an interim capacity as the Scottish FA consider who will succeed Gordon Strachan permanently.
Sky Sports will show the action live, kicking off at 7.45pm.
Meanwhile Nothern Ireland are still in contention for a place in Russia and take on Switzerland in the first leg of their play-off on Thursday.
The game will be on Sky Sports Main Event at 7.45pm.

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
