Noel King has named his 19-man squad for the final match of the Republic of Ireland's UEFA U21 Championships qualifying campaign.

The side take on Serbia at the RSC in Waterford on Friday 7 October, and while qualification for the finals in Poland next year are beyond his side King hopes to end the campaign on a winning note.

Ireland lost 3-2 to the Serbs in Novi Sad earlier this month, with King saying his team will "look to repeat the performance and hopefully get a result at home."

Two players - Walsall's Liam Kinsella and Shaun Donnellan of West Brom - are included in the squad for the first time whi;e ten of the panel will be eligible for the next campaign.

However, King will be without goalkeeper Danny Rogers as the Falkirk netminder is included in Martin O'Neill's senior squad.

Belgian-born Liam Bossin of RSC Anderlecht and Man City's Ian Lawlor will fight it out to replace Rogers between the posts.

Cork City striker Seán Maguire, one of three League of Ireland players in the squad, will be hoping to keep his rich run of goalscoring form going in Waterford.
