SCOTLAND strikers Lyndon Dykes and Che Adams have both fallen ill ahead of the crucial Nations League clash against Ukraine.
The national team duo have split game time under Steve Clarke in the recent wins over Ukraine and Ireland this month.
But, there are now fears the pair could miss out the crucial match against Ukraine having taken ill.
Clarke has however confirmed that both players will travel to Poland with the Scotland squad today in the hope they can feature in the match.
Speaking this afternoon, Clarke commented: "One or two were missing from training this morning. There's some kind of virus in the camp, just sickness.
"Lyndon Dykes and Che Adams didn't train this morning. They didn't feel very well.
"But they'll still travel. They'll be on the plane.
"So we've got that to worry about as well. We're not short of issues, but we're not short of determination to finish the job."
Should Dykes and Adams be ruled out for the match, then it could be Ryan Christie, Ryan Fraser or Barrie McKay called upon.
It's the latest headache selection for Clarke who has already lost Andy Robertson who couldn't be called up through injury, Nathan Patterson and David Turnbull who withdrew after the Ukraine win, and Kieran Tierney and Aaron Hickey who were injured against Ireland.
Scott McTominay is also out and has withdrawn from the squad as he is unavailable through suspension.
