The FAI has announced a revised fixture-list for the final rounds of the Airtricity League Premier Division season.

Dundalk will have to play eight games in a 20-day spell as the league leaders continue to compete across the domestic league and cup as well as in the Europa League.

Stephen Kenny’s side will host Sligo Rovers this Saturday and must finish the league against Galway United at Oriel Park on the 28th of October.

In between those two games they’ll also have to travel to face Longford Town and play host to Bohemians along with the visit of Russian side Zenit Saint Petersburg to the Tallaght Stadium.

Last night Dundalk beat Derry City 2-1 to seal their place in November’s FAI Cup final.
