Waterford FC hoping to bounce back with a victory this evening as Limerick roll into town

Following back to back draws away from home in the SSE Airtricity League Premier Division, Waterford FC will be hoping to return to winning ways as Limerick visit the RSC this evening.

The Blues draw 1-all with Shamrock Rovers last Friday having taken the lead, and conceded a last minute penalty in a 2-2 draw in Bray on Monday.

Alan Reynolds charges have been in brilliant form at home dropping just two points from their games at the RSC and defeated Dundalk 2-1 last time out.

The Blues got the better of the Treaty county 2-nil when the sides met Markets Field in March.
