Kenny’s free-scoring Lilywhites gunning for revenge on Sligo

With just three points separating the top four, another night of intrigue beckons in the SSE Airtricity League Premier Division.

Dundalk will be looking to stay clear at the top and avenge their Setanta Cup Final defeat when they host a Sligo Rovers side who, after something of a false start, are rapidly making up ground on the leading pack.

“The players have responded well to the Setanta Cup final knockback,” said Lilywhites manager Stephen Kenny on the back of that 7-0 thrashing of Drogheda United. “We have 13 different players who have scored this season so we are not relying on any individual and that gives us confidence against a strong Sligo team.”
