St Patrick's Athletic have confirmed that central defender Conor Kenna is likely to be out of action for the next six weeks. Kenna has already missed the league games against Shamrock Rovers and Dundalk but a recent scan revealed that the former Drogheda man has torn a tendon under his knee cap and will not return to action any time soon.

Manager Pete Mahon has added defensive issues for the weekend as he will also be without full back Brian Shortall who will miss a reunion with his former club UCD due to a recurrence of his ankle injury.
