Stephen Kenny has picked his Ireland team for the visit of Finland this evening, making some big changes for his second game in charge.

The main headline is an entire new midfield, with Jayson Molumby set to make his senior international debut alongside Harry Arter and Robbie Brady.

Those are the only three changes to the team that drew 1-1 in Bulgaria earlier this week.

David McGoldrick has been included on the bench after recovering from his recent foot injury.

The addition of Jayson Molumby to the midfield is an exciting one, with the Brighton midfielder set to add the type of urgency in possession that was sometimes lacking in the game earlier this week.

Harry Arter will be making his first Ireland appearance since Mick McCarthy's first game in charge in March of last year, while Robbie Brady will want to build on his excellent cameo in Bulgaria.

Finland travel to Dublin with one defeat in this year's UEFA Nations League, falling to a 1-0 home defeat against Wales on Thursday night.

After a positive performance in Sofia, Stephen Kenny will be hoping to earn his first victory as Ireland manager in the Aviva Stadium this evening.
