Gannon back for Drogheda

Drogheda United entertain Bray Wanderers in tonight’s Airtricity League Premier Division clash at Hunky Dorys Park (kick-off 7.45pm).

The home side will be without Jack Flynn and Colin O'Brien for tonight’s game, while Alan McNally is suspended.

Brian Gannon returns to the squad after serving a suspension last week.

United boss Mick Cooke said: “We are coming to the end of a tough and long season, but I will still be expecting my players to put in a good effort. They did well last week against a tough Galway side.

“Bray will be no pushovers and they will be playing to consolidate their position in the table.

“But we will be going out to win, my goal for the rest of the season is to get as many points from these remaining games as possible.

Derek Prendergast (hip) and Sean Houston (groin) are doubts for Bray ahead of their trip to Drogheda.

Shane O'Connor is also a concern as he picked up a rib injury in Sunday's defeat to Shamrock Rovers.

Adam Mitchell and Jake Kelly return to the squad having served suspensions, while Conor Butler has been added to the travelling party.

Bray boss Pat Devlin said: "Drogheda will be looking for points just as we will so it should be an open game and free flowing."
