Sports Mole previews Scotland's trip to Serbia in the World Cup qualifiers on Tuesday.

Scotland will look to bounce back from their 2-1 defeat to Wales when they face Serbia in the World Cup qualifiers on Tuesday.

Defeat for Scotland would end their hopes of making the 2014 tournament in Brazil, as they currently sit 11 points behind group leaders Belgium.

The visitors will be without Robert Snodgrass, who is suspended because of his sending off on Friday, while Steven Fletcher will likely miss out after sustaining an ankle injury.

Serbia come into the match on the back of three defeats in Group A, having lost 2-0 in Croatia on Friday.

Premier League players Branislav Ivanovic and Aleksandar Kolarov are likely to be included in the squad, despite picking up bookings in the last match.

When the sides met at Hampden Park last year, the game finished goalless.
