Ireland team v Scotland: Stephen Kenny names starting XI for crunch Nations League clash

Stephen Kenny has named his starting XI to take on Scotland at the Aviva Stadium this evening.

Kenny has shuffled the pack massively and has made a slew of changes from the Ukraine defeat in mid-week. Most of these changes were forced, with John Egan, Seamus Coleman, Chiedozie Ogbene and Gavin Bazunu all missing out through injury.

Here's the starting eleven that Kenny has opted for:

Michael Obafemi comes in for his first Irish start, while Jayson Molumby returns to the midfield. Troy Parrott is back in the attack after being dropped for the Ukraine game. Alan Browne and James McClean start ahead of Enda Stevens and Jeff Hendrick.
