Lilywhites looking to keep momentum
Dundalk seek their first league victory over Shamrock Rovers since 1997 on Tuesday night in Oriel Park. Sean Connor's team recovered from their disappointing performance at Richmond Park to beat Sligo Rovers at the Showgrounds on Saturday night.


Thomas Heary was withdrawn early against Sligo Rovers and is rated as doubtful for Tuesday night. Michael McGinlay suffered an ankle injury in a friendly against Dungannon last Tuesday and is almost certainly out of contention. Declan O'Brien is also a doubt to start having missed the Sligo match.


Local striker Tiarnan Mulvenna's performance partnering Darren Mansaram on Saturday night earned considerable praise from the Dundalk management and may be in line to keep his place in the side. If Heary is unavailable it is likely that Simon Kelly will partner Liam Burns in the centre of defence with Shaun Kelly returning to the starting line-up at right-back.


"We produced a decent performance in Sligo," says manager Sean Connor. "Kept our shape well and worked hard. The difference was that we had some luck unlike in some of our other games this season. The win put us on six points and I think we are progressing well as a team.


"Shamrock Rovers is another huge match and I am expecting another full house at Oriel Park for this game. I am sure that 20 years ago this would have been a top of the table clash and that, like myself here at Dundalk, Michael O'Neill has plans to bring Shamrock Rovers back to the top of Irish football. Rovers are further along the road in that process having re-established themselves in the Premier Division over the past two years. I am expecting a very open game with both sides intent on winning three valuable points."
