There was no place for former Dundee United duo Stuart Armstrong and Gary Mackay-Steven in Gordon Strachan’s latest Scotland squad.
Ex-St Johnstone favourite Stevie May has retained his spot, however.
Jordan Rhodes has been recalled for the international double-header at the end of March and Allan McGregor has returned from injury.
And there is also a call-up for Bournemouth’s Matt Ritchie.
Scotland face Northern Ireland in a friendly on March 25 before a Euro 2016 qualifier against Gibraltar four days later.
Strachan’s team currently sit in third place in qualifying group G, three points behind Poland and level with Republic of Ireland and Germany.
