Kyle Lafferty has recovered from an injury scare and will start Northern Ireland's opening Euro 2016 game against Poland.

The Birmingham City frontman had been a doubt for the match in Nice after picking up a groin problem, but will lead the line on his own.

Lafferty, will be supported by a three-man midfield of Steven Davis, Chris Baird and Oliver Norwood, while both Paddy McNair and Shane Ferguson start on the wing.

Polish midfielder Kamil Grosicki does not feature in the starting lineup after battling to overcome an injury.

Meanwhile, Robert Lewandowski, the top scorer in the qualifiers, starts in attack, with Arkadiusz Milik likely to play just behind the Bayern Munich forward.

Poland: Szczesny; Jedrzejczyk, Pazdan, Glik, Piszczek; Blasczykowski, Kapustka, Maczynski Krychowiak; Milik; Lewandowski
Subs: Cionek, Jodlowiec, Linetty, Grosicki, Boruc, Stepinski, Wawrzyniak, Peszko, Salamon, Zielinski, Fabianski, Starzynski
