Penultimate game of the season for the Blues who visit Shamrock Rovers tonight

Waterford FC play their penultimate game tonight in what's been a bumper season in the Airtricity League Premier Division.

It's third against fourth as The Blues travel to the capital to take on Shamrock Rovers.

Waterford, who are guaranteed European football for next season trail the Hoops by three points going into tonight's game.

The Blues suffered a 2-1 defeat at home to league champions Dundalk last Friday, while Rovers netted a later winner in the .Dublin derby against St. Pats.

Waterford midfielder Gavan Holohan told WLR Sport the squad are looking forward to the challenge.

Gavan says there'll be pushing to get that third spot on the table, and said playing away to Rovers is always a big occasion.
