Meanwhile Limerick FC, who suffered a humiliating 3-2 defeat at the hands of Kildare County last Friday, host Waterford United at Jackman Park on Friday night (kick-off 7.45pm).
Limerick FC will be underdogs to win that game since the Super Blues have not managed a win in four games and have not managed to keep a clean sheet in 11 league outings.
Although Waterford United suffered a shock home defeat to Monaghan United last weekend they are still involved in the promotion race (fourth) and will arrive in Limerick in search of vital league points.
Limerick FC have faced Waterford United twice in the league this season and lost on both occasions - Waterford United won 2-0 at Jackman Park on April 24 and 2-1 in the RSC, Waterford on July 25.
