Scotland will be without captain Caroline Weir for the World Cup play-off final with Sweden following a setback in her recovery from a muscle injury.

The influential midfielder pulled up in the warm-up before the win over Czech Republic in Paisley a month ago and has not played for Lyon since.

Aston Villa forward Mia McAulay is also missing after a recent calf problem, with Beth Lumsden of Newcastle and Ipswich striker Eilidh Adams added to the squad.

"Of course we're disappointed for Caroline," said head coach Melissa Andreatta. "She's our captain and she has spoken about how much she loves this team.

"But for us, it's all about the players that we have. Our focus is on working together and doing whatever it takes to be on the right side of the result."

Sweden visit Paisley for the first leg on 1 December, with the return game in Stockholm on 5 December.

BBC Scotland will broadcast the opening game while the action in Sweden will be shown by BBC ALBA.

Victory could secure Scotland's spot at Brazil 2027, although there remains the possibility of an intercontinental play-off in February for Europe's lowest ranked play-off final winner.

Sweden have been at every World Cup since the inaugural tournament in 1991 and finished third at the last two editions.

"We don't fear anybody," added Andreatta.

"We have a squad full of quality and we have shown our character and what we are all about.

"I'm confident and that comes from our preparation and our experience."
