Hibs striker Kevin Nisbet has been backed by Scotland boss Steve Clarke to hit the goal trail again for club and country.
The Cambuslang star has netted just once in his last 11 games in all competitions and has a solitary Scotland goal to his name, having scored in a 2-2 friendly draw with Netherlands in the build-up to Euro 2020 last summer.
But after being included in the Scotland squad for the crucial World Cup qualifiers with Moldova on Friday and Denmark next Monday, Clarke believes the forward will come good after a frustrating spell with Jack Ross' Covid-hit Hibees.
Clarke told The Herald : "Hibs have had a tough time of it in the last few weeks, as well as Kevin.
"They had a great start to the season and then maybe tapered off a little bit.
"Jack will be looking for some positive results and Kevin, as a striker, thrives on goals.
"Will I need to speak to him? I tend to speak to all the players as and when they come in for camp. I try to gauge where they are.
"But Kevin is a good striker, he's shown that before. He'll still be a good striker whether he's out of form a little bit, or is back in form. We will find that out in the next ten days.
"Kevin's been good with us since he came into the squad and he's taken that place.
"People go off the boil sometimes. Not everyone will be at their top level all the time.
"Kevin played against Moldova the last time and did alright. He was involved in the goal.
"He also had another chance that he didn't get out his feet quickly enough and maybe feels he should have done better with.
"But he knows the Moldovans and if he's picked for the game he will be happy enough and will do well.
"I have no worries about Kevin at all."
Nisbet has nine caps to his name after making his debut in March this year in a 4-0 win over Faroe Islands and his most recent outing came against the same opposition in the reverse fixture in World Cup Qualifying Group F, which Scotland edged 1-0.
Most of Nisbet's appearances have come from the bench.
He is one of six Lanarkshire players in the latest squad with Stephen O'Donnell (Wishaw), Kieran Tierney (Muirhouse), Kenny McLean (Cambuslang), Lewis Ferguson (Hamilton) and David Turnbull (Wishaw) also involved.
