Sligo Rovers and Bray Wanderers meet in a Premier Division six-pointer at The Showgrounds tonight, kick-off 7.45pm.

Derek Foran is set to miss out for Bray as he has a groin problem, while there will be late fitness tests for winger Gary McCabe and defender Dave Webster, both of whom have ankle injuries.

Wanderers manager Eddie Gormley said: "The players showed great character and never-say-die attitude on Friday night and it was nice that we were the ones to get the late goals for a change that gave us the three points (against Cork City).

"It will be tough up in Sligo. It hasn't been a happy hunting ground for us recently, but if we show the same attitude as we did on Friday night we will give ourselves a great chance of getting the three points.”

Rovers are likely to be without Owen Morrison and Richard Brush as they are both carrying knocks.

However, Romuald Boco returns from international duty to bolster manager Paul Cook’s side.
