The Drogheda United manager Kevin Doherty has zero fitness concerns whatsoever before this clash thanks to a completely healthy squad to choose from.
We think that The Drogs could go for a 4-2-3-1 formation this time and select Andrew Wogan, Luke Heeney, Conor Kane, Conor Keeley, Evan Weir, Gary Deegan, Ryan Brennan, Adam Foley, Darragh Markey, Dayle Rooney and Kyle Robinson.

Due to a fully healthy group available to choose from, the Bohemian FC boss Declan Devine has no fitness concerns whatsoever before this game.

We’re thinking that Drogheda United will do well to get anything against this Bohemian FC team who we think might end up scoring and staying ahead.
