Promotion/relegation playoff preview: UCD and Waterford face off

UCD and Waterford will go head-t0-head for a place in the SSE Airtricity League Premier Division this evening in the promotion/relegation play-off.

UCD defeated Waterford to relegate them in the same fixture last season.

However, Waterford will be confident after finishing second in this season's First Division and reaching the semi-finals of the FAI Cup.

The two sides meet for a place in next season's Premier Division at Richmond Park, home of St Patrick's Athletic.

Waterford manager Danny Searle said preparation has been key ahead of tonight's promotion/relegation playoff.

"We knew it was four steps to get to the premier division, we've done three, we've got to make sure we're fully prepped and prepared. UCD will be a good side, we need to make sure we do things right and we've done that so well so far this season."

The game kicks off at 7.45pm.
