Date: Fri 17.May
Match begins: 19:00 (UTC)

Season ticket holders at Finn Park haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Finn Harps languishing in the 10th position so far. The guesting Waterford United will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Finn Harps form and stats
