Dean Delaney is likely to remain in goal for rejuvenated Shelbourne as they go for a hat-trick of wins to move to within three points of league leaders Cork City. Colin Hawkins has shaken off a calf strain and should come back into Shels’ central defence.
Jamie Harris and Alan Moore remain sidelined. Town, who haven’t conceded a goal in seven games, have skipper Barry Ferguson back from suspension, but wait on Alan Murphy (thigh).
Please note that tonight's eircom League Premier Division fixture between Shelbourne and Longford Town at Tolka Park is an 8pm kick-off. Also, because of traffic restrictions in the area due to the final U2 concert at Croke Park, fans traveling to the game are advised to attend early.
