After facing Slovenia, Scotland will take on Switzerland at Hampden Park before going to North Macedonia, then returning home for the reverse fixture against the Slovenians.
Tierney was withdrawn midway through Celtic’s Scottish Premiership defeat to Rangers on Sunday, while McLean played in Norwich’s dramatic 4-3 defeat to Bolton at Carrow Road.
