Bohemians look to consolidate top spot

THE third series of games in the League of Ireland Premier Division begins this evening with champions Bohemians travelling to Dundalk in the hope of tightening their grip at the top of the table after recent slip-ups by their title rivals (Oriel Park, 8pm, live Setanta Ireland).

Pat Fenlon’s men will be without the suspended Gary Deegan while Glen Cronin, Jason McGuinness, Anto Murphy and Sean Byrne will also miss out due to injury.

His opposite number, former Gypsies boss, Sean Connor is wary of his old side despite having taken the scalps of Cork City and Derry City in their last two matches.
