League leaders Bohemians welcome Galway United to Dalymount Park on Friday. Galway will be up against it following successive 2-0 losses to Bohs already this season.
Team News
Galway’s Ian Foster will welcome Aaron Greene into the squad, the player having been ineligible last week. David Cooke received a straight red against Longford and will therefore be suspended for the tie.
Bohs’ manager Pat Fenlon sees midfielders Paul Keegan and Gary Deegan both serve one-match bans having picked up four yellow cards and Mark Rossiter is out with an aggravation of the shoulder injury that troubled him earlier in the season. Glen Crowe, Glenn Cronin, Jason McGuinness and Brian Shelley are all available following spells out.
Fenlon’s view
"We will have to change things around and freshen things up. But when we pick a team from our squad we can always put out a decent side no matter who it is," said Pat Fenlon having seen his side play five games in the last two weeks. Bohs have played three cup matches - two going to extra time -two league matches and a friendly recently.
