Game on at the Bowl this evening but the area around the centre circle still looks to be feeling the effects of last week's postponement. Big game ahead here for UCD & Cobh in terms of the promotion picture

Very defensive looking Ireland side for this evening's game at Wembley. Surprised that Mark McGuinness gets the nod in defence.
Ireland (4-4-2): Kelleher: O'Shea, McGuinness, Collins, Scales; Ebosele, Cullen, Molumby, O'Dowda; Ferguson, Szmodics.

Boost for Bray with Zach Nolan back from injury - though Kieran Cruise remains absent. Drogheda unchanged from FAI Cup final triumph over Derry City last weekend. Massive test in store for the Seagulls at Tallaght Stadium. A crowd of circa 5k is expected..
