Waterford United could wrap up the First Division title and with it automatic promotion to the Premier Division in Ballybofey this evening if they can win their top-of-the-table clash with second placed Finn Harps.

United have an eight points advantage over their hosts and although the Donegal club could conceivably narrow that gap to just two if they won both this evening's encounter and their game in hand, Jimmy McGeough's side look strong favourites to by pass the play-offs and move straight into the top flight for next season.

The visitors will, however, be without goalkeeper Wayne Russell, who has been suspended following his sending off against Monaghan United, so Anthony Fennelly makes the starting line up for only the second time this season.
