Lisa Evans and Sophie Howard have been named in the Scotland Women’s squad for the friendlies against Chile and Brazil in early April.

Head coach Shelley Kerr has selected her squad for the matches in Pinatar, Spain, with two changes made to the one that secured a fifth-placed finish at the Algarve Cup.

Arsenal winger Evans returns after injury, while Reading defender Howard is also included, having last featured for Scotland in the 2-1 victory over Albania that secured qualification for this summer's FIFA Women's World Cup in France.

Rachel Corsie will once again captain the side, while Kim Little continues in her role as vice-captain.

Hibernian defender Joelle Murray will earn her 50th international cap if she plays in both the game against Chile on April 5 and the clash with Brazil three days later.

Chile will, like Scotland, make their debut at the FIFA Women's World Cup in France this summer, while Kerr's side will come up against Brazil for the first time since 2013.
