Sligo Aiming To Pile Further Misery On Glentoran
Sligo Rovers meet Glentoran in the Setanta Sports Cup quarter-final second leg at The Oval on Monday night.
Rovers hold a 5-0 advantage from the first leg after goals from Lee Lynch (2), Anthony Elding, Ryan Connolly and Evan McMillan.
Rovers will be looking to make it through to the semi-final stage for the fourth year in-a-row which has previously achieved
Only Linfield (2005-2007), Drogheda United (2006-2008) and Cork City (2006-2008) have matched Rovers current streak of three semi-finals in a row.
Following last Friday’s win over Derry City, the Bit o’ Red will hope to continue a good start to the new season.
Lee Lynch has recovered from illness which ruled him out of the match in The Brandywell.
Aaron Greene is out with an ankle injury. Danny North is also absent because of injury.
Rovers boss Ian Baraclough said: “We’re going to go and try to win the game. We will use the squad as well because we have some players who need games and are looking for a chance to get into the team.
“We hold a very big advantage and need to finish the job and I’ll be looking for the right performance and result to do that.
“Lee should be in contention after a vomiting bug ruled him out of Friday’s game. It was unfortunate and we couldn’t take a risk on him or on it spreading in the camp.
We trained on Sunday so we will check over the squad and go out and try to win the match.”
