IFA Intermediate Cup QF: In-form Institute tipped to see off struggling Newington

Institute host Championship 2 strugglers Newington in a Intermediate Cup quarter-final at Drumahoe this afternoon (kick off 3.00pm).

With the Derry side enjoying an excellent round of form, anything other than a home win would be considered a shock result.

However, manager Kevin Deery is taking nothing for granted and is expected to field a strong side while at the same time being mindful that they will be lining out just three days later against Dergview in the league.

February’s Player of the Month Shane McGinty and Gareth Brown will miss that game through suspension so they are expected to feature this afternoon.

However, the in-form Michael McCrudden and Niall Grace will miss out as both are cup-tied.
