Managerless Athlone Town Look To Get Off The Mark

Friday, 15 April 2022 13:52

Treaty United are the visitors to Lissywoolen this evening.

Athlone Town begin life without Martin Russell with Treaty United the visitors to Lissywoolen this evening.

The Westmeath outfit remain winless in the SSE Airtricity League First Division and parted company with Russell after defeat to Longford Town in the midlands derby.

The midlanders have been porous defensively, conceding a total of 21 goals across eight games in the league. Six more than any other team in the division.

They have been goal shy too however, scoring a total of eight thus far. All that said there had been signs of improvement and more cohesion up until the Longford game, so it'll be interesting to see if there's a slight tweak in philosophy tonight.

This tie with Treaty comes hot on the heels of their previous meeting eleven days ago, which the Limerick outfit won 2-0 thanks to a brace from former Athlone forward Dean George.

Dermot Lennon will take charge of first team affairs for this one, which kicks-off at 7.45pm

Elsewhere First Division leaders Cork City welcome Bray to Turner’s Cross, Waterford go up against Galway United and Wexford meet Cobh Ramblers.
