Finn Harps will seek to maintain the recent improvement in their home form when they take on Bray Wanderers this evening at Ballybofey, where the Wicklow team have won just once in their last six visits.

Pat Devlin's side will have captain Jody Lynch available after the defender won his appeal against a two-match ban but Stephen Gifford misses the trip with an injured foot while Stephen Fox is doubtful after limping out of the defeat by Bohemians with a hamstring problem.

Both sides could do with a win, Wanderers having lost their last four games and Harps needing to settle themselves after some disappointing results.
