Suspended duo back for Bray

Bray Wanderers and Derry City go head to head in the Airtricity League Premier Division at the Carlisle Grounds tonight, kick-off 7.45pm.

Wanderers will have to plan without influential midfielder Gary Dempsey who is serving a one-match ban.

However, Danny O'Connor and Dane Massey, who missed out on the win over UCD last week are both available for selection this week after serving suspensions.

Stephen Brennan, Darren Quigley and Gary Shaw remain out through injury.

Bray boss Pat Devlin said: "The two games between us so far this season have been very close.

“They shaded it in Bray and while we took a point away from the Brandywell we should really have had all three.

“Lets hope its third time lucky for us on Friday night but it won't be easy.”

Derry must plan without Kevin Deery as he is struggling with a calf injury.

Ruaidhri Higgins and Barry Molloy are both doubts for City as they recover from injury.

City boss Stephen Kenny said: "I'm delighted with our form. We had a thoroughly deserved victory over Shamrock Rovers and we must build on that in Bray.

"The players have been terrific this season. Bray are an unpredictable side. They've beaten Shamrock Rovers twice this season so you have to respect that."
