Lizzie Arnot, Kirsty Smith and Jenna Fife have all been called-up for Scotland’s upcoming FIFA Women’s World Cup 2019 Qualifiers against Belarus and Poland as they attempt to qualify for next summer’s tournament.

The first game is against Belarus at the Falkirk Stadium on Thursday 7 June with a 7:35pm kick off.

The game against Poland takes place in Kielce on Tuesday 12 June with a kick-off time of 2:30pm (GMT).

Scotland sit in second place in Group 2, two points ahead of Poland in third who have played one more game than the Scots.

Arnot was the star of Hibernian’s SWPL Cup Final win over Celtic, scoring five goals in the 9-0 victory as the team secured the trophy for the third year running.

She  returns to the squad for the first time since recovering from her ACL injury.

Kirsty Smith who featured at Euro 2017, also played in the game at the Falkirk Stadium but Goalkeeper Jenna Fife was an unused substitute for Grant Scott’s side at the weekend.

Fife, who has two caps has been a virtual ever-present between the sticks this season for Hibernian this season.
