Longford look to bounce back

Longford Town are looking to bounce back from last week's humiliating 5-0 defeat by Finn Harps when they take on FAI Cup finalists Drogheda United.

However, Alan Kirby is suspended for Town though manager Alan Mathews is expected to make sweeping changes after last week's result.

Drogheda, meanwhile will have Jason Gavin and Keith Fahey back after they missed last week's game because they were cup-tied.

Paul Keegan also returns though Jermaine Sandvliet and Shane Robinson are injured and Graham Gartland suspended.
