Giovanni Trapattoni has announced his starting line-up for Friday night's key World Cup qualifier against Sweden. As usual with a Trap selection, no real surprises with McClean starting ahead of Pilkington as he reverts to 4-4-2, having experimented with 4-4-1-1 against Wales last month.
Team to face Sweden: Forde, Coleman, Dunne, O'Shea, Wilson, Walters, McCarthy, Whelan, McClean, Keane, Long #COYBIG #IrlSwe
