Seamus Coleman has wished his old club Sligo Rovers well as they look to advance in Europe.
The Bit O’Red must overturn a 1-0 deficit when they host Icelandic side FH Hafnarfjordur at the Showgrounds in Thursday’s Europa Conference League clash.
Rovers will have 400 fans in attendance and will be confident of pulling off a result at home having created the better chances in the away leg.
But influential midfielder Greg Bolger is suspended after his sending off shortly before FH snatched their late winner last week.
Republic of Ireland captain Coleman played for Sligo Rovers before joining Everton for £60,000 in 2009.
And in a video message to Sligo Rovers players and supporters, he said: “I want to wish you all the very best on Thursday night.
“I know you will have supporters in the stadium and I know what it's like playing in front of them in The Showgrounds.
"They will be your 12th man and I wish you all the very best. Good luck."
