St Patrick's Athletic will be without Lee Desmond and Dean Clarke when they face Derry City tonight for the second time in less than a fortnight.
Desmond scored a wonder goal when the sides played out a 1-1 draw at the Brandywell but is forced to watch tonight from the stands.
Saints were held 1-1 at home by Bohs on Friday and boss Harry Kenny said: “Derry were tough opponents recently and we know we need to be at it.
“But I thought we played well up there and got a good point. If we can show the same levels of performance from that night, I’d be hopeful we can pick up a result.”
Derry travel to the capital after a 0-0 draw away to Sligo Rovers on Saturday and manager Declan Devine has a host of injury concerns.
Eoghan Stokes and Patrick McClean are out while Ally Gilchrist and Darren Cole require fitness tests.
