Pat Fenlon's eircom League leaders Shelbourne will be looking to make it seven wins in a row when they face Drogheda United at United Park.

Shels are flying and are likely to delve into their huge squad to cover doubts over Richie Baker, Wes Hoolahan (both groin), Stuart Byrne (thigh) and Jamie Harris (hand).

Defender Colin Hawkins is suspended and Glen Crowe is ruled out.

Drogs, meanwhile, will be without goalkeeper Dan Connor because of a groin strain, meaning last year’s first choice goalkeeper Gary Rogers will deputise.
