DLR Waves host a Shamrock Rovers side buoyed by their first win of the season last week when they beat Cork Women’s FC 6-1 at the AUL.

 

Waves were beaten 2-0 in Castlebar so will be aiming to bounce back and prevent the Hoops getting on a roll. Rovers will welcome back goalkeeper Michelle Watson from suspension.  Alison Brien and long-term injuries Lauren Kavanagh and Carla Moran are still out for the home side.

 

“DLR will probably be a tough enough test. Larry will have them well organised and get a result. Our confidence is good. We won’t get carried away but last week gave us a lift and we’d like to build on it,” said Shamrock Rovers boss Stephen Craig.

 

“We’d a poor first half last week but were better in the second half. We’ll look to maintain the same level of energy and commitment as we showed in the second half into this game,” said DLR Waves boss Larry Mahony.
