Suspension and injury will force Dublin City into at least three changes for tonight's low key derby at Dalymount.
Striker Ger McCarthy has had a recurrence of an ankle injury and is ruled out while central defender and skipper Stuart Malcolm and midfielder Gavin McDonnell are banned.
"I've said these are the games we need something from," said Keely. "I've got a positive response from my own lads and we'll be looking to carry on from where we left off against Waterford."
"It may be a small derby in terms of attendance, but it's big in terms of importance considering where we are in the table and where we want to be," said College boss Pete Mahon, who brings a full squad to Dalymount.
