Keogh and Clark are back together in the middle of the defence after guiding the country through the playoffs against Bosnia whilst Aiden McGeady is in line for his 82nd international cap.
If O'Neill sticks with his preferred formation for his starting team, the side for Tuesday night could line out like this.
James McClean has been deployed in that role up front for his last three appearances for Ireland and could be Jon Walters' natural replacement if the side are looking for a man who can turn that diamond into a five-man midfield when defending.
Aiden McGeady could line out in the Wes Hoolahan role where he actually played in some of the earlier games in the campaign whilst Darron Gibson would be taking club mate James McCarthy's position with Meyler in for Whelan.
Hendrick takes up the Hendrick role.
Of course, they could just play five across midfield anyway with McGeady and McClean out wide but, so close to the tournament, the manager will want to see who his viable options really are.
