Dundalk v Shelbourne
Irish Daily Mail FAI Cup – Round Two
Oriel Park – May 29th – KO 7.45pm
Shelbourne travel up the M1 on Friday night for their Second Round Irish Daily Mail FAI Cup game with Dundalk at Oriel Park. Kick-Off at the Carrickmacross Road venue is scheduled for 7.45pm.
Dundalk – last season’s winners and current leaders of the Premier Division of the SSE Airtricity League – defeated St. Patricks Athletic 2-0 at Richmond Park last Friday night, with two goals from Daryl Horgan.
While Dundalk were disposing of Pats on the banks of the Camac, Shelbourne were defeating Roddy Collins’s Waterford United 1-0 on the banks of the Tolka, courtesy of a penalty scored by Gareth Coughlan, which was awarded when Shels striker Philly Hughes was taken down in the area.

Over the years, these two sides have met twenty times in the FAI Cup (including replays), Shelbourne winning on nine occasions, Dundalk on seven, with four draws. In these games, Shelbourne have scored a total of 36 goals, with Dundalk scoring 34.
