WNL Preview: UCD Waves v Wexford Youth Women's AFC
- Extratime Team
- Sat, Oct 25 2014
UCD Waves and Wexford Youths meet in a top of the table clash at Jackson Park tomorrow night with the Model County outfit keen to cause an upset.
Wexford beat Peamount United 3-2 in a thrilling game last week and coach Willie Doyle is looking for a similar display against Eileen Gleeson's Waves.
"UCD Waves are starting to click as a team. They had a massive game against Peamount two weeks with Eileen returning there so hopefully they're not as fired up for us," said Doyle.
"We're winning games and we just want to keep that going. If we can perform like we did in the cup against Raheny then hopefully we'll have enough about us to get a result."
Youths have Orlatih Conlon out with a broken foot while Nicola Sinnott remains out with a knee injury. Amy Walshe and Becky Cassin played with their college during the week so should be fit. UCD Waves have Savannah McCarthy back from injury.
Eileen Gleeson said: "We have watched Wexford a few times. They're much more offensive minded than they were last season so I expect a tough game.
"We have the excitement of the FAI Continental Tyres Women's Cup Final coming up too but we have to focus on the next game that we have to play. Having said that everybody has to try and prove they deserve their place in the final and give me a headache."
