Bohemians v Drogheda United
Dalymount Park
Bohemians’ Jekyll and Hyde season continued with a 3-0 loss at St Pat’s on Monday following Friday’s defeat of Sligo Rovers. Back-to-back wins, the second over Shamrock Rovers, halted Drogheda’s slide to give them a nine-point cushion above the bottom two.

Derry City v Finn Harps
Ryan McBride Brandywell Stadium
Three successive defeats, and just two points from their last five games, has seriously questioned Derry’s title aspirations. At the other end of the table, four straights defeats has Harps in a battle with UCD to avoid automatic relegation.
Dundalk v St Patrick’s Athletic
Oriel Park
Unbeaten at home, and with back-to-back away wins in the northwest last weekend, Stephen O’Donnell’s third-placed Dundalk are fast emerging as dark horse challengers. St Pat’s search for consistency in performance and results continues.
UCD v Sligo Rovers
UCD Bowl
Bottom-of-the-table UCD feel they can’t buy a break from referees after another contentious penalty award against them at Shelbourne on Monday. Sligo got an immediate bounce under interim coach John Russell to beat Derry the same night for a first win in five.
Shamrock Rovers v Shelbourne
Tallaght Stadium (8pm)
Another Dublin derby likely to sell out as Damien Duff takes his in-form Shelbourne – four wins on the bounce – to the champions, smarting from their shock loss at Drogheda. Having matched them for much of a home defeat last month, Shels cross the city in confident mood.
