PREVIEW

The First Division playoffs are upon us and Waterford FC will be gearing up to take on Treaty United on this evening at the Market's Field (KO - 7.45pm).

The Blues will go into battle with the Limerick outfit over two legs to see who can claim a spot in the First Division playoff final.

The reverse leg will be played this Saturday at the RSC (KO - 7.45pm).

Ahead of the game, Blues boss Danny Searle told Waterford's club website: “We’re looking forward to the game and we can’t wait for it to come around. The players are ready to get going and we look forward to kick off.

“We’ve done so well as a team and club to finish second and come into the game in good form, but in cup-style knockouts like the playoffs we need to make sure we perform on the day when form can go out the window a little.

“We’ve seen the support we’ve got over the past few months and we know there’ll be a big crowd travelling on Wednesday and the players want to give those fans something to shout about in Markets Field before bringing the tie back to the RSC on Saturday.”

Longford Town and Galway United contest the other playoff sem-final with Longford hosting the first fixture on Wednesday.
