Wexford boss Seamus McEnaney has kept with the same team that beat Limerick to face his native Monaghan in today's All-Ireland SFC Qualifier clash at Innovate Wexford Park.

The Model men saw off the Treaty County by the minimum margin of 0-12 to 0-11 at the Gaelic Grounds two weeks thanks to a late PJ Banville free.

The Horeswood clubman, who hit four-points, proved the match-winner as 'Banty' recorded his first championship victory as Wexford manager.

Ciaran Lyng has been passed fit despite missing a recent in-house game with an infected toe, while Colm Kehoe returns to the bench after a hamstring injury.

Wexford (All-Ireland SFC v Monaghan): Shane Roche; Brian Malone, Jim Rossiter, Michael Furlong; Eoghan Nolan, Joey Wadding, Tiarnan Rossiter; Daithi Waters, Naomhan Rossiter; Kevin O'Grady, Ben Brosnan, Adrian Flynn; Ciaran Lyng, Conor Carty, PJ Banville.

Subs: Conor Swaine, James Stafford, Paul Curtis, John Leacy, Jake Firman, Colm Kehoe, Ronan Devereux, Micky Dwyer, Niall Hughes, John Tubritt, Donal Shanley.
