There will be a minute's applause held ahead of Scotland vs Ukraine in memory of Queen Elizabeth II.

The SFA made a request to UEFA, which has been approved.

The applause will take place after both country's national anthems tomorrow night.

There have been several incidents across the UK over the past week involving small sections of supporters interrupting the minute's respect, including travelling fans at Ibrox and St Mirren Park.

The game on Wednesday is the first of a nations league triple-header, with further matches with the Republic of Ireland and Ukraine again following on.

The Scots currently sit second in the group on six points.

Ukraine were 3-1 victors at Hampden in June's World Cup play-off semi final.
