Sligo Rovers entertain Cork City in this afternoon's eircom League of Ireland Premier Division clash at the Showgrounds, kick-off 3.00pm.

Sligo boss Paul Cook must plan without defender Seamus Coleman (Ankle), Steve Feeney (hamstring) and Matthew Judge (broken cheek bone).

City were the winners when the sides met at Turner’s Cross earlier this season, with a Dave Mooney strike the difference between the two sides.

Pat Sullivan and Liam Kearney will miss the game through suspension, but John O’Flynn should be available having returned from his ankle injury as a substitute on Thursday.

Cork boss Alan Mathews said: “John came on in the last ten minutes against Haka and he came through that unscathed. He has not shown any adverse reaction, so he will come back into the squad for Sunday.”

“This will be difficult game for us and we will have to respond to the challenge we face in a positive manner.”
