Martin O'Neill has finalised the Republic of Ireland squad for the friendlies against Switzerland and Slovakia in Aviva Stadium.

O'Neill originally selected a 40-man provisional panel but that has now been reduced down to 33 players.

Included in the squad are the uncapped duo of Matt Doherty and Jonathan Hayes.

The squad will begin preparations for the two friendly games on Monday at the FAI National Training Centre.

Tickets for the games between Republic of Ireland and Switzerland (Friday, March 25) and Slovakia (Tuesday, March 29) at Aviva Stadium are available through Ticketmaster.ie.
