Team news: Apart from the suspension of Chris Butler, Rovers manager Paul Cook will have a fully fit squad to choose from as Romuald Boco returns from injury.

Pat's have defender Stephen Paisley suspended but Damien Lynch is likely to return to the squad. David Partridge, Joe O Cearuill and Joe Ndo are recovering from injuries while John Frost remains out.

Talking point: St Pat's form has slipped a little with two draws in their last two outings meaning Bohs are breathing down their neck at the top. A difficult trip to the Showgrounds awaits where Paul Cook will be a spectator as he starts a four-match touchline ban.
