Stephen Kenny is facing into the biggest night of his managerial career.
His third game in charge of the Republic of Ireland is tonight’s Euro 2020 playoff away to Slovakia.

The team in full sees Darren Randolph start in goal, with a back-four of Matt Doherty, Shane Duffy, John Egan and Enda Stevens.
