Giovanni Trapattoni has named his side for tomorrow night's away encounter against Andorra, with Shane Long stepping down to allow Kevin Doyle to partner Robbie Keane.

Elsewhere, Darren O'Dea will start from central defence to replaced the suspended Richard Dunne, while Sean St Ledger returns to partner the Leeds United defender.

There's not much in the way of surprises for tomorrow night's game, with Keith Andrews and Glenn Whelan making up the Irish central midfield, despite the latter being one yellow card away from suspension against Armenia on Tuesday night.

Ireland starting XI v Andorra: Shay Given, John O’Shea, Sean St Ledger, Darren O’Dea, Stephen Ward, Damien Duff, Glenn Whelan, Keith Andrews, Aiden McGeady, Robbie Keane, Kevin Doyle upfront.

Make sure you log back onto JOE tomorrow night once the final whistle has been blown to read our player ratings for Trap's side.
