Blues set to take on league leaders in Louth this evening in the Airtricity League Premier Division

The games continue to come thick and fast as Waterford FC are back in action this evening with a trip to face Dundalk in the SSE Airtricity League Premier Division.

Friday’s defeat at home to Limerick will have hurt the Blues squad and they’ll look to bounce back against top of the table Dundalk.

The Blues fell behind early and were a man down after half an hour, but showed plenty of fight to give themselves a chance throughout the game, but it wasn’t to be as Limerick left with the points.

The Blues won 2-1 in the RSC at the start of May with two goals from Izzy Akinade, while Dundalk grabbed all three points in Oriel Park in March with a late own goal downing the Blues.
