Waterford FC face one of their biggest games of the season in Innichore this evening as the Blues take on St. Patrick's Athletic in a vital Airtricity League Premier Division encounter.
The Blues go into the game in good form with three away wins on the bounce, two FAI Cup wins at Skerries and Drogheda and a vital 2-1 victory over Derry City at the Brandywell.

Gary says St. Pats will be up for this one after being knocked out of the Cup.
