Sligo Rovers will be hoping to maintain their push for a top three finish when they take on Bray Wanderers at the Showgrounds tonight (kick-off 7.45pm).

Rovers will be without Romauld Boco as he damaged ankle ligaments during the first half of the win against Drogheda United last Saturday.

The Benin international will have a scan on the injury later this week.

Sligo have no other injury concerns except for long-term absentees Mauro Almeida and Richard Brush.

Wanderers will be without Jake Kelly, John Mulroy, Stephen Brennan and Sean Houston for the trip to the northwest as they are all struggling with injuries.

Goalkeeper Matt Gregg is a doubt after suffering a shoulder injury in a heavy fall against Bohemians on Friday.

Brian Kane is on standby should Gregg fail to recover in time.

Director of Football at Bray, Pat Devlin said: "We are up against class opposition and it is going to be very difficult.

“But as you have seen over the last few weeks, we will go out and give it our best shot and we will be difficult to beat. I'm looking forward to it.”

All children under 12 will be allowed free entry into the ground when accompanied by an adult.
