Longford in with chance of survival

Last placed Longford Town will be looking for all three points at Dalymount Park as they take on Bohemians in tonight's eircom League of Ireland Premier Division clash, kick-off 7.45pm.

Longford are still in with a slim chance of survival but will have to take maximum points against one of the form teams in the league to have any hopes of maintaining their Premier Division status.

Gypsies boss Sean Connor has a full strength squad to choose from as Mark Rossiter, John Paul Kelly and Neale Fenn have all recovered from injury.

The home side welcome back Dessie Byrne, Liam Burns and Stephen O'Donnell to the squad after the trio were suspended against Cork City.

"Longford will be very tough opponents," said Connor.

"They are fighting for their lives and will have been boosted by their recent victories.

"This will be a very difficult game but the memory of our last encounter should be enough to motivate my side to a strong performance."

Longford travel to Dublin with a full squad and will be hoping talisman Dave Mooney can inspire a vital away win.
