Republic of Ireland v Andorra
The new Aviva Stadium is set to see its first taste of competitive action when the Republic of Ireland host Andorra on Tuesday.
The former Lansdowne Road is completed following its refurbishment, and Irish supporters will be hopeful they can celebrate in style in their Euro 2012 qualifier against one of Europe's perennial strugglers.
Ireland started their progress in the group functionally, rather than fantastically, with a 1-0 win in a boiling hot Hanrapetakan Stadium against Armenia, but Keith Fahey's goal could have a big say on matters in the group due to some teams struggling against the Eastern Europeans.
Andorra, who are ranked 201st in the world, should prove a much less difficult test for manager Giovanni Trapattoni's side, with only one win to their name in their competitive history, back against Macedonia in 2004.
Robbie Keane wins his 102nd cap for his country, and will be hopeful of adding to his 43-goal tally against the Andorrans, who lost their opening game 2-0 against Russia.
The Tottenham striker missed several chances against Armenia, but if the 30-year-old is to get chances in front of goal, he can fire Ireland to victory as he looks to regain full match fitness.
Trapattoni has insisted, however, that Ireland will not go gung-ho and try to demolish their opposition, favouring a more reserved approach to merely pick up three points and move towards automatic qualification.

Trapattoni sticks with the same side
Republic of Ireland manager Giovanni Trapattoni has resisted the temptation to make changes for tomorrow's Euro 2012 qualifier against Andorra.
The Italian will field the same 11 men who started Friday evening's 1-0 win in Armenia in the first competitive international at the newly-revamped Aviva Stadium.

That means keeper Shay Given will line up behind a back four of John O'Shea, Richard Dunne, Sean St Ledger and Kevin Kilbane, while Glenn Whelan retains his place in a midfield four also including Liam Lawrence, Paul Green and Aiden McGeady despite having been booked in Yerevan.
Skipper Robbie Keane will once again partner Kevin Doyle in attack, although Trapattoni intends to give other players a chance from the bench, providing that the game goes the way he hopes.
Defender Darren O'Dea has returned to his club after being ruled out of tomorrow night's game.
The 23-year-old Ipswich player last week underwent a scan on a knee injury, which revealed a slight sprain, and although he was included in the party which flew out to Yerevan last Wednesday, he did not make the 18 for the 1-0 victory over Armenia.
O'Dea was able to train at Gannon Park in Malahide yesterday, but has since been withdrawn and has gone back to Ipswich for treatment.
He becomes the fourth member of the squad to pull out, following Damien Duff, Keith Andrews and Keith Treacy on to the sidelines.
A fifth casualty, Paul McShane, is back in training after recovering from the hamstring problem which prevented his participation in Armenia.
Republic of Ireland team to face Andorra in Aviva Stadium on Tuesday, kick-off 7.45pm:
Shay Given, John O'Shea, Sean Saint Ledger, Richard Dunne, Kevin Kilbane, Liam Lawrence, Glenn Whelan, Paul Green, Aiden McGeady, Robbie Keane, Kevin Doyle.
