Stoke's Adam, Blackburn's Rhodes out of Scotland side for Macedonia clash

Charlie Adam and Jordan Rhodes have been ruled out of the Scotland squad for Tuesday's World Cup qualifier against Macedonia.

The Scots meet the Macedonians in Skopje in their second last group match but will be without both Adam and Rhodes.

Stoke City midfielder Adam, an unused sub in Friday's loss to Belgium, is out with a back strain while Blackburn Rovers striker Rhodes has a broken hand.

However, Rhodes did not start on Friday meaning manager Gordon Strachan will only be forced into one change as Norwich City midfielder Robert Snodgrass will miss through yellow card accumulation.
