Burnley defender Kevin Long and West Ham midfielder Josh Cullen have been drafted into the Republic of Ireland squad for the European Qualifiers against Gibraltar and Georgia.
Long and former U21 captain Cullen, who is currently on loan at Charlton, have been called up by manager Mick McCarthy as replacements for injured duo Alan Browne and Ronan Curtis.
Preston midfielder Browne has an ankle injury, while Portsmouth striker Curtis has undergone surgery to re-attach a fingertip after catching it in a door.
Ireland begin their Euro 2020 qualifying campaign away to Gibraltar on March 23, followed by a home game against Georgia three days.
Both Group D games are live on Sky Sports.
