Glasgow Rangers striker Jason Cummings is on the Scotland bench, and so are Wolverhampton Wanderers left-back Barry Douglas and Celtic winger James Forrest.

Oli McBurnie is seen during a training session prior to the International Friendly match between Scotland and Costa Rica at  Orium Sports Centr on March 19, 2018 in Glasgow, Scotland.

Rangers January target Oliver McBurnie has been included in the Scotland starting lineup against Costa Rica at Hampden Park in Glasgow in a friendly international this evening.

The game against Costa Rica will see the 21-year-old striker, who recently told The Scottish Sun that he wants to join the Gers in the future, make his debut for Scotland.
