ROI to face Serbia this evening

John O'Shea and Seamus Coleman are both fit to start the Republic of Ireland's first World Cup qualifier tonight. 

That's according to manager Martin O'Neill who, as ever, won't name his starting eleven for the meeting with Serbia until the hour before kick-off. 

The Group D clash gets underway at 7.45. 

Elsewhere in the group this evening, Wales host Moldova – also at 7.45. 

While the action gets underway at 5 with Austria travelling to Georgia.
