Sligo Rovers entertain Waterford United in tonight’s eircom League of Ireland clash at the Showgrounds, kick-off 7.45pm.

Sligo boss Paul Cook has a strong squad for tonight’s clash as left-back Keith Foy is the only doubt.

Gareth Cronin has to plan without Karl Bermingham (ankle) and Daryl Kavanagh (broke leg) but otherwise has a full squad to choose from.

Blues boss Cronin is confident going into tonight’s clash.

“We worked very hard on Monday evening (against Longford),” said Cronin.

“We could have played better football at times but I was very pleased overall with the performance.

“I would have loved the three points but it wasn’t to be.

“There is no reason we can’t beat Sligo and we probably have to beat them if we are to catch Galway – we just have to stop giving away goals in the last few minutes.”
