Live updates: Republic of Ireland v Georgia

It’s a big night for the Republic of Ireland who must beat Georgia at the Aviva to retain any hope of qualifying for Euro 2016.

Martin O'Neill's men received an unexpected boost on Friday night after tonight's opponents beat Scotland 1-0 in Tblisi.

However, a victory for the Boys In Green is a must for them if they are to profit from Scotland's slip-up. The game starts at 7.45pm.

Our team of sports reporters (at the game and here in the office) will be providing regular twitter updates on the match, and from Scotland's clash with World Champions Germany and Poland's games against Gibraltar, as the action unfolds.
