Giovanni Trapattoni makes two changes from the Ireland side that faced Sweden on Friday night to the one which will play Austria at the Aviva tomorrow night.
Glenn Whelan comes in for Paul Green despite him being our very own amalgamation of Gennaro Gattuso and Nobby Stiles. The other change sees the injured Robbie Keane being replaced by Derby's Conor Sammon. Good news though, Trap compares Sammon very favourably to Caleb Folan.
Marc Wilson is a doubt for the game with a groin injury.
Trap likening Conor Sammon to Caleb Folan.

Trap said he considered playing Hoolahan behind Long. Believes Wes more effective in last 15-20 minutes when the game breaks up.
