Longford Town will be looking to get some points on the board as they entertain Derry City at Flancare Park this evening, kick-off 7.30pm.

Having lost six points during the week, Longford are last in the table with no points to their name.

John Reilly, Patrick Sullivan and Robbie Martin are all carrying knocks and are unlikely to start against City.

Goalkeeper Shay Kelly is still out injured for Town.

Captain Petter Hutton and goalkeeper Ola Tidman are missing for the Candystripes but otherwise boss Pat Fenlon has a full squad to choose from.

"It will be a tough encounter for us. They haven't lost many games at home since Alan Matthews has been manager," said Fenlon.

"When things go against you which you've no control over it tends to galvanise you. When you are in that position you roll up your sleeves and work a bit harder for each other."
