Motherwell manager Michael Wimmer has to choose from a squad that has some fitness concerns. Ross Callachan (Hamstring injury), Steve Seddon (unknown injury) and Zach Robinson (Achilles tendon rupture) won’t be making appearances.

From our viewpoint, The Steelmen appear most likely to elect for a 4-4-1-1 formation, settling for Ellery Balcombe, Stephen O'Donnell, John Koutroumbis, Dan Casey, Dominic Thompson, Tom Sparrow, Lennon Miller, Harry Paton, Andrew Halliday, Callum Slattery and Tony Watt.
