St Patrick's Athletic will look to keep pace with Dundalk at the top of the Airtricity League Premier Division when they host Bray Wanderers at Richmond Park, kick-off 7.45pm.

However, Pete Mahon will warn his side against being complacent, as Bray's only win this season came at table-toppers Dundalk.

Mahon will be without David McAllister through suspension, while Derek Pender (knee) and Garret Coughlan (leg) are also absent.

Bray have injury problems of their own and are missing Richie Baker (back), David Tyrrell (ankle), David O'Neill (groin).

David Webster, Chris Shields and John Mulroy are doubtful, but Dean Zambra returns from a seven-week lay-off because of a knee injury.

Manager Eddie Gormley was pleased with Bray's performance in the cup game against Derry City (1-1) and expects another tough game tonight.

He said: 'Once again its going to be a big ask for us going to Richmond Park as they are a very good side, but we will give it our best shot and if we show the same commitment and effort as we did in Derry then we could get something from the game.'
