Waterford FC are set to welcome Shamrock Rovers to the RSC tonight in the SSE Airtricity Premier Division.
The Blues come into the game looking to bounce back after a disappointing loss to Drogheda United at Weavers Park last week.
This is Rovers' first league game since July 4 due to European fixtures. In their last league game, they beat Dundalk FC 1-0. More recently, the reigning League of Ireland champions failed to progress past the UEFA Champions League 2nd Qualifying Round after a 6-2 loss on aggregate to the Czech Republic's Sparta Prague.
In the two sides' most recent clash, Waterford won 3-1 in May at Tallaght Stadium.
Currently, the Hoops are in fifth place in the League of Ireland table with 34 points from 23 games, while Waterford is just a bit higher in third with 37 points from 25 games played.
Blues goalkeeper Sam Sargeant will be a big loss tonight for the home side. He remains absent after picking up a fractured hand in training last week.
Kick-off between Waterford FC and Shamrock Rovers at the RSC is at 7:45 pm.
