Pre-match views from the Match Thread:

Imp13: “On to the game, a change tonight being that it’s the first game under Skubala you may have us as slight favourites although the bookies go just the other way. At the very least it’s very winnable.

A stronger squad than Saturday with Hamilton and O’Connor back. The former comes straight back in but Paudie may have to wait if the back 3 from the weekend are fit.

I again beat the drum for Shodipo to start. I’m not sure who we’ll go with down the middle. If it’s Vale he’ll have a challenge against two big, experienced centre-halves.

Looking forward to it and hoping for the best.

UTI.”

HitherImp: “Evening, TMT. Hoping for three points and for the squad to be able to put into practice some of the new techniques they’ve been learning. COYMI!!!”

syimp: “Here’s hoping. I’m expecting a comfortable win tonight, so I hope they don’t let me down.”
