D1 - Football - Ireland - Eircom League

Odds on guests raised too much, oth in deep waters, but after the sack of trainer Sligo regained confidence and won on Monday against title contender Derry after gained only one draw in four rounds.

Guests could be reinforced, too, with the possible return of Mata ( att. 6+3 2g), McCourt ( def. 9+1 1g) all absentess against Derry. Cawley (midf. 9+5 2g). Key def. Buckley ( 15 2g), knocked in same match, will be checked before the start.

UCD continues its bad run in last round witha defeat against new promoted Shelbourne.

Hosts are last on table with only one win and five draws in 17 rounds and one win ( Dundalk 2-1 but after opponent remained in ten men and one goal scored by penalty ) and a draw against second from bottom Finn Harps in last ten.

Worst attack of league, ten goals scored, the author of four of them, topscorer Whelan ( author of two of the only three goals scored in last five rounds, the ones against Dundalk) is out today.

Also with its problems, Sligo seems too strong against a so poor team with Whelan out, too.
