Blues midfielder Alan Judge could add to his international caps this afternoon when the Republic of Ireland take on Georgia in Tbilisi in a Group D Euro 2020 qualifier (Sky Sports Main Event/Football from 1.30pm).
Judge, who has previously won eight caps, scoring one international goal, is expected to be a sub for the side managed by former Blues boss Mick McCarthy. Also in the squad is ex-Town midfielder Conor Hourihane.
Ireland, who currently top the group, are in action again on Tuesday when they face Switzerland in Geneva in another qualifier. A win in both games would secure a place in the finals.
