BASKETBALL: DEMONS WILL be desperate to atone for their National Cup loss to UL Eagles when the sides meet in the Nivea For Men's SuperLeague tomorrow night.

The Demons’ cause hasn’t been helped by the loss of inspirational captain Shane Coughlan, who is out for up to six weeks with a broken finger.

Unbeaten 11890 Killester welcome back Kieran O’Brien ahead of their clash with a buoyant UCD Marian tomorrow. Paddy Kelly (broken collar bone) is expected to return for the home game with Moycullen on December 18th.

Ulster Elks will make the short trip to Belfast Star while Bord Gáis Neptune welcome a DCU Saints side to the Neptune Stadium still reeling after their cup hopes were ended by UCD Marian.
