Duff returns for Bulgaria clash

Bulgaria boss Stanimir Stolinov sent his big guns into battle with the Republic of Ireland as he looked to rekindle hopes of World Cup qualification.

English-based dangermen Dimitar Berbatov, Martin Petrov and Valeri Bojinov, who all missed the 1-1 draw in Dublin at the end of March through injury, were included, along with former Charlton defender Radostin Kishishev.
