Republic of Ireland boss Martin O'Neill is optimistic Robbie Keane and James McCarthy will be available despite respective calf and hamstring injuries.
The pair will be monitored, as will Stoke's Jonathan Walters, who returned to full training on Saturday following an Achilles problem.
Sweden's Albin Ekdal has recovered after suffering a deep cut to his back during a fall at a nightclub in May.
However, the midfielder may lack match fitness and is unlikely to start.
O'Neill has a decision to make over who partners John O'Shea in central defence with Shane Duffy's set-piece prowess in the opposition penalty area possibly earning him the nod over Ciaran Clark.
Darren Randolph has been first-choice goalkeeper in recent matches but Keiren Westwood and veteran Shay Given are also in contention in a close battle for the number one jersey.
