Scotland seek a return to winning ways when they visit Croatia in the UEFA Nations League this weekend - but supporters expecting to catch the match on TV should take note.
Steve Clarke's men are in Group A1 action with Croatia and Portugal the latest tests, however Norwegian broadcaster Viaplay - who currently own the rights - will not be transmitting the ties.
The Scotland head coach is having to navigate a selection dilemma since almost a whole XI of potential starters are absent from this camp through injury.
Angus Gunn's absence sees veteran Craig Gordon return to the squad, while there's first call-ups for Nicky Devlin, Jack MacKenzie, Liam Lindsay, and Andy Irving.
Kevin Nisbet also has been drafted in as a late addition.

Is Croatia vs Scotland on TV?
No. Surprisingly the match against Croatia will NOT be shown live on television.
ITV had been in discussions to show the match - but an agreement couldn't be agreed.
The broadcaster had stepped in to show both the previous double-header on free-to-air TV.
It will be the first time in a decade that a Scotland national team hasn't been televised.
