Stephen Bradley's side go to Drogheda United in the FAI Cup.

Rory McIlroy is four shots off the lead heading into the final day at the Tour Championship in Atlanta.

He's 15-under-par overall and still has two holes of his third round left to play, after a weather delay forced a suspension of play last night.

Scottie Scheffler - who leads the Fed Ex Cup standings - is the leader on 19-under-par.

He's one shot clear of Xander Schauffele in second.

Formula One

Formula One champion Max Verstappen will have to come from towards the back of the grid if he's to make the podium at this afternoon's Belgian Grand Prix.

He's due to start from 15th - with title rival Charles Leclerc 16th - as they're among several drivers handed penalties for engine changes.

Ferrari's Carlos Sainz will be on pole, with Lewis Hamilton and George Russell fourth and fifth respectively.

The race is due to get underway at 2pm.
