Cork City v Bray Wanderers (2.0) - James Mulligan is absent for Cork as Liam Murphy looks for his side to start stringing some wins together again. They will also be without the older of the Colin O'Briens who is on loan to Waterford United. Cork are boosted by the return, after a long lay-off, of Anthony Buckley, but he may well stick with the 11 that started last week's 2-2 draw with Bohemians.

Bray look set to be without striker Paul Keegan again as he is still struggling to shake off a thigh strain. Colm Tresson returns from suspension, though, while the hope is that Matt Greggs, the Crystal Palace goalkeeper who Pat Devlin has been chasing this week, will be in a position to start. If not the visitors may have a problem as John Walsh is expected to miss the rest of the season with a knee injury while Alan Young and Eddie van Boxtel face fitness tests.
