Rovers determined to wrap up title
Sligo’s victory at Dalymount Park on Friday has extended the title race, but even if the Hoops slip up this evening, they would be odds-on favourites to get the points they need for a second successive title at home to basement side Galway United next Friday.
Rovers will be without a number of key personnel tonight, with Gary Twigg missing due to a hamstring problem and Billy Dennehy suspended. Chris Turner is also ruled out through suspension while Karl Sheppard (thigh) and Enda Stevens, who picked up a knock in Thursday night’s Europa League game, are both doubts.
