Republic of Ireland: McGuinness earns first call-up with Doherty among absentees
Smallbone and Coleman have not played for their clubs since featuring for the Republic of Ireland last month.
Coleman hobbled off with a leg injury in the 2-0 defeat by England.
Smallbone started in both home losses against England and Greece but a hamstring issue has prevented him from playing for Southampton since then.
Taylor, 26, has been in previous Republic squads but the Ipswich midfielder, who made seven appearances for the Irish Under-21 in 2019 and 2020, is yet to earn a full cap.
The Irish will face Finland in Helsinki on 10 October before taking on Greece in Athens three days later.
Hallgrimsson began his Republic of Ireland reign with last month’s two defeats and will be seeking significant improvement both in terms of performances and results in the Helsinki and Athens contests.
Republic of Ireland squad
Goalkeepers: Caoimhin Kelleher (Liverpool), Mark Travers (AFC Bournemouth), Max O’Leary (Bristol City).
Defenders: Festy Ebosele (Watford, on loan from Udinese), Mark McGuinness (Luton), Dara O’Shea (Ipswich Town), Nathan Collins (Brentford), Andrew Omobamidele (Nottingham Forest), Liam Scales (Celtic), Callum O’Dowda (Cardiff City), Robbie Brady (Preston North End).
Midfielders: Josh Cullen (Burnley), Jayson Molumby (West Bromwich Albion), Jason Knight (Bristol City), Finn Azaz (Middlesbrough), Jack Taylor (Ipswich), Jamie McGrath (Aberdeen).
Forwards: Adam Idah (Celtic), Evan Ferguson (Brighton and Hove Albion), Sammie Szmodics (Ipswich Town), Chiedozie Ogbene (Ipswich Town), Mikey Johnston (West Brom), Troy Parrott (AZ Alkmaar), Kasey McAteer (Leicester City).

Lionel Messi scores twice as Inter Miami win MLS Supporters’ Shield for first time
The trophy is Messi’s 46th piece of silverware in his glittering career for club and country.
By finishing top of the standings, Miami have secured home advantage during the post-season play-offs.
“The first objective has been achieved and now we have to think about what’s next,” said Messi.
“The first round is three games but then it’s one game and anything can happen. But we have the great advantage of playing all the games at home, which is what we were looking for. We are very strong at home.”
Miami need two wins from their final two league matches to beat the MLS record for most points in a regular season, which currently stands as the 73 amassed by the New England Revolution in 2021.

FPL tips & team of the week: Brennan Johnson, Evanilson and Bryan Mbeumo are great value for Gameweek 7
David Raya, Arsenal, keeper, £5.6m – home to Southampton
This is the second of Arsenal’s plum home games in a row and, despite last week’s disappointment, they are the team most likely to keep a clean sheet in gameweek seven.
Taking Raya is a hefty investment, but he has been worth it this season with three clean sheets and also six bonus points.
Riccardo Calafiori, Arsenal, defender, £5.8m – home to Southampton
Doubling up on Arsenal’s defence feels like a safe bet.
It’s a small sample size, but in Calafiori’s two starts for Arsenal, he has a higher expected goals number (xG) than goal machine Gabriel (0.26 to 0.21).
The Italian scored a cracker at Manchester City and is averaging a couple of shots per game he starts. He’s also had more touches in the box than any other Gunners defender in the past two games.
Rico Lewis, Manchester City, defender, £4.7m – home to Fulham
Speaking of touches in the box, Lewis leads that statistic for City and for just £4.7m he feels like an FPL cheat code, with a decent chance of an attacking return.
The flip side is you never know who Pep Guardiola is going to play on any given week in defence, but Rodri’s absence makes Lewis’ involvement against Fulham feel a bit more likely.
At the price, Lewis owners can make sure they have a decent fourth defender in case he stays on the bench.
Max Kilman, West Ham, defender, £4.5m – home to Ipswich
A budget defender at home to the team with the lowest xG so far this season – makes sense, right?
Kilman is a threat from corners – he scored twice last season for Wolves and has had two headers on target so far this term.
Team-mate Konstantinos Mavropanos has been more threatening from set-pieces this season, but he didn’t start the last game.
New signing Jean-Clair Todibo should eventually become Kilman’s defensive partner and he will make West Ham’s defence better.

Porto 3-3 Man Utd: How Harry Maguire became United’s unlikely super sub
“We said, ‘why was he bringing on Maguire and Evans?’ That’s why.”
Those were the words of Robinson moments after England defender Maguire met Christian Eriksen’s 91st-minute corner to send a thumping header beyond Porto goalkeeper Diogo Costa.
It was 3-3. Relief for Ten Hag and United’s supporters.
David: Has Harry Maguire just saved Erik ten (man’s) Hag’s job?
Scott: Ten Hag saved by the man he stripped the captaincy from and has tried to sell for two years!
Seb: I think Maguire has just kept Ten Hag in a job. Another questionable performance from Manchester United.
Maguire himself admitted that, despite his late rescue act, there were parts of United’s display that were indeed questionable.
“When you get 2-0 away from home you have to be a little bit more solid and there were far too many gaps,” the England international told TNT Sport.
“Too many crosses were coming into the box for sure and they ultimately punished us for it.
“It’s something we need to improve. If we want to be successful this season we can’t keep conceding two goals.”
