It’s Ireland v Finland (KO 7.45pm) in both teams' fifth and penultimate Nations League Group B2 match, held at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin.
Ireland's only points so far came in Finland last month, when second-half goals by Liam Scales and Robbie Brady (above, left) saw them come back from 1-0 down to win 2-1.
The Boys in Green will avoid automatic relegation to League C if they avoid defeat this evening, as the Finns have yet to record any kind of positive result in the group.
On that basis alone, a rare home win is on the cards.
