Galway continue to operate without Gary Curran (broken metatarsal) and Joseph Yoffe (ankle) while Bobby Ryan is a doubt with a back injury. Mikey Gilmore and Enda Curran are doubtful.
QUOTES:
UCD manager Martin Russell: “The Derry result was extremely hard to take but it is great that we have a game so quickly after that defeat. The Galway United game will not be easy by any stretch of the imagination but it will give us the opportunity to go looking for another win.”
Galway United manager Sean Connor: "It's a vital game, we have to close the gap on UCD. Ourselves, UCD and Drogheda are in a mini-league of our own. I've every confident that these boys will survive the test and that we'll be a Premier Division team next year.”
