Derry City and Sligo Rovers' FAI Cup quarter-final clash was due to take place on Friday but it has been rescheduled for Wednesday, November 25th with a 7.30pm kick-off.
Neither the FAI nor Derry have confirmed the reason for the postponement but Sligo said it was due to a Covid-19 outbreak in the Derry camp.
A tweet claimed the game was postponed "following an outbreak of Covid-19 within the Candystripes camp”.
