Tonight’s League of Ireland matches
BOHEMIANS v CORK CITY
(Dalymount Pk, 7.35, live on RTE 2) Team news: Shane Supple, Daniel Kelly and Dan Casey, rested by Bohs for last week’s cup tie in Scotland, return, but Ryan Masterson and Danny Grant are injured, and Darragh Leahy is a doubt. Cork are without Seán McLoughlin, who was injured on Ireland U-21 duty while Colm Horgan and John Dunleavy are also out. Talking Point: Bohs are enjoying their best form since their titlewinning spells a decade ago with six straight wins and six clean sheets in all competitions. Cork haven’t had a clean sheet in the league in four matches and this is a big test of their title credentials. Bohs to earn a draw. Ref: P McLaughlin Odds: Bohs 7/2, Cork 5/6, draw 12/5 Verdict: Draw
SHAMROCK RVS v LIMERICK
(Tallaght Stadium, 8.0) Team news: Rovers are missing Trevor Clarke, David McAllister and Luke Byrne who all out for the remainder of the season. For Limerick, Eoin Wearen, Kilian Cantwell and Shaun Kelly are all likely to miss out. Talking Point: Rovers dropped points to Limerick in April but that was during a particularly bleak spell for the Hoops and, with four wins from their last five outings in the league, an in-form Rovers side are in good shape to claim a top-three finish with their late surge, a win here would help their cause hugely and looks well within their grasp. Ref: S Grant. Odds: Rovers 2/11, Limerick 14/1, draw 11/2 Verdict: Rovers win
WATERFORD v BRAY WDRS
(RSC, 7.45) Team news: Waterford’s Courtney Duffus, Cory Galvin and Derek Daly are injured while Bastien Hery is suspended, Noel Hunt is a doubt but Sander Puri is back from international duty with Estonia. Bray are without long-term absentees John Sullivan and Hugh Douglas but Dragos Mamaliga returns. Match Point: Waterford’s oncepromising season is petering out and last week’s cup exit was a major disappointment while the defeats are starting to stack up, they have dropped points against Bray twice this season but can bounce back with a victory here. Ref: Neil Doyle Odds: Waterford 2/11, Bray 14/1, draw 11/2 Verdict: Waterford win
