Republic of Ireland v Denmark: TV channel, live stream, squad news & preview

The Republic of Ireland host Denmark at the Aviva Stadium in the UEFA Nations League for the first time since their 5-1 mauling in the second leg of their World Cup Qualifying play-off.

The Danes' star man, Christian Eriksen, put the Irish to the sword that day, scoring a hat-trick, but injury keeps him out of his country's second fixture in this competition.

His double got Denmark all three points in their opening fixture against Wales, and Age Hareide's side will have to replace the midfielder's goals in his absence.

Ireland, however, were beaten soundly by the Welsh and will need a much-improved performance from the 4-1 defeat if they are to avoid a similar scoreline against a side who have lost just once in two years.
