The Republic of Ireland raced to a 3-0 win over Israel in Debrecen last weekend, and the duo now lock horns once again in the Serbian town of Backa Topola on Sunday.
Israel are still searching for their first win of the UEFA Nations League campaign, but they may fall short in Serbia.
Team news
Defender James Abankwah will be suspended for this trip to Backa Topola and Heimir Hallgrimsson may make further changes after a hectic schedule.
Jack Moylan should retain his place after a strong start to his international career, while Troy Parrott will lead the line once again.
Israel will be without Southampton goalkeeper Daniel Peretz after he withdrew from the squad with a groin injury, while striker Abu Farkhi will be pushing for a return to action despite getting sent off against Austria.

Prediction
The Republic of Ireland struck three goals without reply in the first 25 minutes in Hungary last week and they should be backed for another comfortable win over the struggling Israel on Sunday.
They allowed their opponents just 0.32 expected goals in that tie and Israel followed that with a drab goalless draw against Kosovo, leaving them with one goal from 1.25 expected goals across their three UEFA Nations League games.
The Boys in Green have kept four clean sheets in their last seven games and look good value for another win to nil in Backa Topola.
Troy Parrott could be the man to lead them to victory, too. He scored in the reverse fixture last weekend and followed that with a brace against Austria on Thursday, including a stunning solo goal and a penalty.
He has now scored seven goals in his last five competitive games and nine of his 14 international strikes have come in his 14 outings since the start of 2025, so back him to find the net again.
