PREVIEW

Waterford FC conclude their league campaign against Athlone Town at the RSC on Friday - Kick-off is at 7.45pm.

The Blues return to First Division action this week following their disappointing 1-0 FAI Cup semi-final loss to Shelbourne last weekend.

A victory or a draw would guarantee a second-place finish for the Blues which would see Danny Searle's side take on Treaty United in a two-legged semi-final tie.

The first leg of the playoffs will be on next Wednesday with Galway United and Longford Town also involved.
