Finn Harps will have to plan without defender Daithí McCallion for Friday’s crunch game against Cobh Ramblers at Finn Park.
The young Derry native has been a revelation for Harps in the backline so far this season.
Indeed, his performances have earned him a call-up to represent the Northern Ireland U19s in their UEFA Euro Elite round qualifiers which take place in France over the next week.
McCallion will not be available for Dave Rogers’ side for the game this Friday.
Harps are beginning to turned a corner with two draws and their first win against Longford in last weekend’s game.
The Harps manager is also sweating on captain and defender Keith Cowan who is also an injury doubt.
A large home crowd is hoped for at Finn Park this Friday night.
