Scotland have concerns over the fitness of several defenders ahead of their opening 2014 World Cup qualifiers against Serbia and Macedonia.
Besiktas goalkeeper Allan McGregor is confident of being fit after recovering from the groin strain that forced him off in the friendly win over Australia last month. "He played on Saturday and kept a clean sheet," Houston added. "We are absolutely delighted he's fully fit because his experience in playing big international matches is vital. "We were convinced after the Australia game that he was struggling. He had a couple of injections and recovered brilliantly. Fair play to the (his club) for getting it sorted."
