Referee Rob Harvey will lead the League of Ireland officiating team in Friday’s UEFA Nations League clash between Estonia and Azerbaijan. 

It is the same lineup in Tallinn as last week when Harvey was handed the high profile trip to referee Copenhagen’s 2-1 home defeat to Polish side Jagiellonia Białystok on Thursday night in the Confernce League, where he worked alongside Wayne McDonnell and Robert Clarke who ran the line and had Rob Hennessy as fourth official.

Back in July, Harvey took charge of the qualifier between St. Gallen and Tobol (the Kazakhstani team who eliminated Derry City on penalties in the third qualifying round tie last year). 

The Estonia squad includes Shamrock Rovers midfielder Markus Poom and Bohemians’ Martin Miller.
