Bohs look to get challenge back on track

Bohemians will be looking to get their league challenge back on track when they take on Sligo Rovers at Dalymount Park tonight, kick-off 7.45pm.

The Gypsies lost their last league game to Shamrock Rovers and now find themselves in seventh place in the league, albeit just six points off the top of the table.

Pat Fenlon must plan without Aidan Price who is serving a suspension, while Ollie Cahill and Ger O’Brien are both struggling with hamstring injuries and are doubts ahead of the match.

Mark Rossiter (hamstring) and Killian Brennan (thigh) are also concerns for Bohemians, while Fenlon has also been ill this week.

Rovers could go top of the table with a win tonight, depending on results elsewhere, but must plan for the game without star midfielder Joseph Ndo who has been struggling with a calf injury.

Sligo manager Paul Cook said: “Our record in Dublin this season has been disappointing to say the least. We’ve been giving away soft goals. We gave away an early goal in UCD and then even earlier against St Pat’s.

“You will not win many games if you keep doing that. We’ll have to be tighter and there’s no better place to change the bad run than in Dalymount Park.”
