In this competition, they haven’t won any of the last 11 away matches. In their away league matches, the most frequent final score was the 1‑1 (4 out of 11 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 24 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 14 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 11 away matches for this competition there is 1 period that stands out: they have scored 3 of their 6 goals between minutes (0'‑15').

Longford Town comes to this clash after a defeat, by 0-3, against Finn Harps, thus adding the twenty-third game without winning in this competition. Unlike the "enemy" of this round, manager Christian Ilzer usually plays in a 4-3-3, where the three most advanced players are Dylan Grimes, Robert Manley and Aaron Dobbs. When the visiting club invests in the offensive process, they usually do it through the right aisle, taking advantage of the depth offered by Aaron McNally.

Confirmed Lineup: Lee Steacy, A. McNally, Aaron O'Driscoll, Patrick Kirk, Dean Zambra, Michael McDonnell, Dylan Grimes, M. O’Brien, Darragh Nugent, Dean Williams, Rob Manley.
Coach: S. Henderson.
