After the Netherlands failed to book a ticket in the Euro 2016 competition, losing five matches in the qualifying group stage, the Dutch side will be desperate to get back to their winning ways.
Meanwhile, O'Neill's team has been enjoying a great winning streak in the European qualifying stage, only losing one of their last 11 games. The green army finished third on the table behind Germany and Poland with 18 points.
Team news - who's fit and who's not?
Ireland Republic will be heading into this match against the Netherlands with two key players sidelined. Newcastle goalkeeper Rob Elliot will miss this game after suffering a serious knee injury during their 2-2 friendly draw with Slovakia. The Irish team has also endured another major setback after Stoke's Marc Wilson was ruled out of the European campaign due to a knee ligament injury from January's FA Cup clash with Crystal Palace.
The Oranje have been given a major injury boost ahead of their friendly, as Roma star Kevin Strootman is set to start against Ireland. The 26-year old midfielder has been called up for their match-up in Dublin after his two-year absence due to persistent knee problems.
