Injury worries for Bray and Shels

Bray Wanderers and Shelbourne face off at the Carlisle Grounds tonight after both sides ended a run of two defeats with impressive results last week (kick off: 7.45pm).

Shels beat Dundalk 4-0 at home while Bray drew 1-1 with leaders Sligo in an eye-catching display.

Bray Wanderers are without Dave Webster (knee), Sean Heuston (thigh) and suspended pair Adam Mitchell and Danny O'Connor. Sean Hurley has been added to the squad.

Shelbourne are without suspended Barry Clancy while Ian Ryan and Glenn Cronin are out through injury.

Shelbourne manager Alan Mathews said: “You never take anything for granted in this league, regardless of where teams are – top, middle or bottom – you have to go out and do your work and Dundalk were well in the game last week.

“We had to play really well. Although we won 4-0, we had to work very hard for it.”

Bray's director of football Pat Devlin is under no illusions about the task ahead.

“It's going to be a tough one for us with so many players missing,” he said.

“We have to get on with it and we will have a couple of new faces in and see what we can produce."
