Scott McTominay fitness boost after picking up knock in Scotland win

Napoli are set for a major boost regarding Scott McTominay's fitness following an injury scare during last night's match between Scotland and Poland.

The attacking midfielder limped off during the nation's 2-1 victory over the Poles in Warsaw on Monday evening.

The former Manchester United man looked to be in pain as he came on the pitch, with Ryan Gauld being sent on by Steve Clarke in his place.

After being assessed by Scotland's medical team, the 27-year-old is believed to think he'll be fine to line up against Roma on Sunday evening.

He's scored three goals in his first 10 matches for Napoli as they lead the title race in Italy's top league.
