The Tribesmen are on a four-game winning run following their 3-1 victory at home to Athlone Town last week and will look to make it five on the bounce when they face third-placed Bray Wanderers on Friday evening.

Bray are coming into this fixture on a four-game unbeaten run of their own, with wins over Kerry FC away and Finn Harps at home, before most recently drawing 2-2 at home against fourth-placed Cobh Ramblers.

Manager John Caulfield spoke to the club’s media team ahead of Friday’s fixture:

"Bray have invested well this year, and after a slow start, they have come right into form."

"They’re on a great run, but we’re on a good run ourselves, and we’re looking to keep it going."
