Nick Montgomery has made three changes to his starting XI for this evening’s cinch Premiership match against Ross County; 7.45pm kick-off at the Global Energy Stadium.
The first change comes in the backline with Lewis Miller returning to the starting line-up. The right-back missed our Scottish Cup Quarter-Final with Rangers with a slight muscle strain but has trained ahead of this one and been given the all clear from the medical department.
He comes into the side in place of Chris Cadden who is named on the substitutes’ bench.
The second switch sees Dylan Levitt return to the starting line-up. He replaces the suspended Nathan Moriah-Welsh.
Lastly, Elie Youan also starts, coming in for Martin Boyle who has concussion.
That means David Marshall starts in goal with a back four of Lewis Miller, Will Fish, Rocky Bushiri and Jordan Obita, whose suspension only counts for the Scottish Cup.
Nectar Triantis will continue in his defensive midfield role, with Dylan Levitt and Joe Newell in-front of him. Emiliano Marcondes once again leads the line, with Elie Youan and Myziane Maolida out wide.
Youngster Jacob MacIntyre comes into the matchday squad, whilst Jair Tavares drops out through illness.
Montgomery is without the injured Luke Amos, Martin Boyle, Josh Campbell, Jake Doyle-Hayes, Jair Tavares and Dylan Vente tonight, and as mentioned above Moriah-Welsh is suspended.
