Derry look to open up 10-point lead

Shelbourne are hoping to extend their gap at the top of the table to 10 points over Derry City with a win a Tolka Park in the eircom League Premier Division tonight.

However, a victory for Derry - who beat Shels on penalties in Monday's eircom League Cup final - will cut the gap to four points and Derry have three games in hand.

Shelbourne welcome back Joseph Ndo. Sean Dillon is suspended, with Jamie Harris is likely to deputise.

Derry will be without David Forde and Killian Brennan who are both suspended following their sending offs in Monday's League Cup clash.
