Galway United -v- Sligo Rovers
Credit:
Terryland Park will be the venue for the third Connacht derby of the season on Friday night when Galway United take on Sligo Rovers (kick-off 19.45).
Both sides go into the game on the back of morale-boosting wins, with Galway having secured a last-gasp victory away to Bray Wanderers last Friday night, while Sligo moved off the bottom of the table with a win over St Patrick's Athletic on Saturday.
United manager Ian Foster has been handed a double boost ahead of the game with Shane Fitzgerald available for selection once more after overcoming a long-term ankle problem and more recently a virus. Meanwhile, Iarfhlaith Davoren has recovered from a foot injury that kept him out of the starting eleven against Bray.
Paul Cook's Sligo, however, do not have their injury worries to seek with Stephen Feeney, Richie Ryan and Stephen Parkhouse all out. Gavin Peers faces a late fitness test.
