Shamrock Rovers ready to test Bray’s title credentials

Last week they beat champions Dundalk and next week they face leaders Cork. But, this evening, Bray Wanderers will be hoping to keep their early title ambitions on course as they host Shamrock Rovers at the Carlisle Grounds.

Currently joint second on points with the Lilywhites, Wanderers have already scored 20 goals in the league this season, second only to Cork on 23, with Gary McCabe — who comes up against his former club tonight — the leading scorer in the league with nine.

“We put up an excellent display against the champions Dundalk last Friday night,” says Bray manager Harry Kenny.
