Fahey misses out as Drogs look to stay in pole position
"It's unfortunate for him but there's a long season to go and we'll meet Pat's again at some stage," says manager Paul Doolin. Stephen Gray is doubtful for Drogheda after picking up a knock last Friday but Damien Lynch does return from suspension.
Drogheda go into the game boosted by the news that goal-scoring midfielder Paul Keegan has been named the eircom/Soccer Writers player of the month for March. With ten points from four games, three goals scored and none conceded, the FAI Cup holders have got their league campaign off to a fine start.
