Buckley says Pat’s can rock rivals

Liam Buckley believes his St Patrick’s Athletic side will cause ructions tonight on the volcanic island of Vestmannaeyjar by dumping IBV out of the Europa League (Hasteinsvollur, 8.30pm, Irish).

Confidence is high in the Saints camp as they hold a 1-0 advantage – thanks to Chris Fagan’s strike last week – going into the second leg of their first qualifying round clash with their Icelandic hosts.

Having knocked the same team out of Europe last year, Buckley’s men are aiming to repeat the trick after landing on the island off Iceland’s south coast via a stopover in Kelflavik.
