Hide AdA “little niggle” saw him left out of the 2-0 loss in the Group D opener.
"He did a little bit of light training and we will just see how he progresses,” Clarke confirmed.
"He's got a chance."
Tierney’s absence was felt in the centre of defence having emerged as one of the team's key players, both in a defensive and attacking sense, with Clarke admitting it changed the "dynamic”.
The long wait for Scotland to play a tournament match proved to be an anti-climax as the team passed up a number of chances on the way to going down to a double from Czech ace Patrik Schick.
