As it currently stands, the Boys in Green occupy the third place play-off spot behind Germany and Poland after the Scots failed to pick up a single point in the last international window.
At 3.30pm this afternoon, Martin O’Neill names his squad for the final two group games at the FAI’s headquarters in Abbottstown.
Ireland will be hoping they can avoid a repeat of the last time Germany came to Dublin (a 6-1 drubbing in 2012) when the world champions visit the Aviva Stadium on 8 October.
When the team travels to Warsaw to play Poland three days later, they will have a far better idea of how the group is likely to pan out as Scotland will have played the Poles, leaving them with what should be a routine three points against Gibraltar.
So tell us, do you think Ireland will be one of the 24 nations at next summer’s European Championships in France?
Poll Results:
Yes, after finishing third and winning the play-off (2974)
