Match Preview - Longford Town v Bray Wanderers

On the back of four wins in the last five games, Bray make the trip to Bishopsgate on Friday to face Longford Town. 

With just seven games remaining in the race to the play-offs, the Wicklow outfit are in fourth position. 

Currently 26 points separates the two teams in the table – with the Midlanders in tenth place. 

 

 

Defender Evan Osam is ruled out for the Green and White’s. 

Fellow defender Paul Murphy is also rated doubtful. 

 

 

It’s been honours even in three previous meetings this season between the clubs.  

The two teams met in a rearranged fixture last March at the Carlisle Grounds. Karl Chambers’ early effort for the visitors was cancelled out by Thomas Morgan’s late equaliser in a 1-1 draw. 

Then last April at Bishopsgate, the Seagulls won 3-0 with second half goals by Peter Grogan, Max Murphy, and Harry Groome. 

But back at the Carlisle Grounds, Longford claimed a 1-0 victory with a last-minute Adam Wixted winner.
