Waterford FC are potentially 90 minutes away from a return to the League of Ireland Premier Division.

UCD stand in the Blues' way in the promotion/relegation decider at Richmond Park this Friday (KO - 7.45pm).

Danny Searle's side have impressed in recent fixtures, having defeated Galway United 3-0 in the First Division playoff final last Friday to set up this week's tantalizing do-or-die contest against the Students.

Players like the talented Phoenix Patterson, last week's two-goal hero Junior Quitirna and clinical striker Wassim Aouachria will look to make the difference on Friday as the Blues target a swift return to top-flight football.

Tickets for the final can be purchased HERE
