Jack Moylan will win his second cap for the Republic of Ireland after being named to start in tonight's friendly against Qatar at Aviva Stadium.
The Lincoln City attacking midfielder enjoyed a dream debut in Murcia, Spain earlier this month when he plundered a hat-trick against Grenada.
Séamus Coleman will make his 80th appearance for the Boys in Green on the right of Ireland’s now customary back five.
Liam Scales is on the other flank, while Jake O'Brien, captain Nathan Collins and Dara O’Shea form the back three.
Jayson Molumby, who will only play in this friendly and not next week’s trip to face Canada in Montreal, is joined in central midfield by Jamie McGrath, while Moylan and Chiedozie Ogbene will be in support of centre forward Troy Parrott.
Caoimhín Kelleher will start in goal, completing the experienced side that Heimir Hallgrimsson had promised to pick for this fixture.
