The Republic of Ireland will start their qualifying campaign for Euro
2012 with a trip to Armenia on 3 September.
The new Aviva Stadium in Dublin will host the clash against Andorra
four days later before the home match with Russia on 8 October.
The campaign ends against Armenia in Dublin on 11 October next year.
'The early fixtures represent good opportunities for us and it
is always good to finish at home," said Republic manager Giovanni
Trapattoni.
He added: "On balance, these fixtures are better than those we had
in the previous World Cup qualification campaign.
"I also think the squad will have benefitted from the significant
steps forward made against top sides like Bulgaria, Montenegro, Italy,
France and Brazil."
