Bray Wanderers vs UCD

Bray Wanderers take on UCD at the Carlisle Grounds on Friday night in a bottom of the table tussle.

Bray go into the game without the services of the suspended Ray Kenny and the injured Dane Massey. Central defenders Derek Foran and Kevin Doherty are both doubtful for the game, along with midfielder Mark Duggan. Doherty is struggling with a dead leg while Foran will undergo a late fitness test on his ankle injury. Duggan will also have to wait until a decision is made on his stomach problem.

In the build-up to the game, Wanderers manager Eddie Gormley said: "This is a massive game for us, a real six-pointer and it's crucial we get a result. We gave a good performance against Cork last Friday, particularly the back four and the middle four. We were in the game until the second goal and that really killed us off." He added: "We need to work hard on our forward play and we have done that in training and hopefully we can get back to scoring goals."

UCD go into the game with a clean bill of health and no suspensions.

Speaking ahead of the game, UCD boss Pete Mahon said: "We have a good record against Bray but that counts for nothing on Friday. We're playing with confidence at the moment and we can only hope that continues."

The referee will be Tom Connolly. Kick off is at 7.45pm.
