Finn Harps manager Ollie Horgan is expected to ring the changes tonight when his side take on Ulster Senior League champions Cockhill Celtic in the EA Sports Cup at Finn Park (8pm).

After a narrow 3-2 defeat in the League against Shamrock Rovers on Friday and with Dundalk coming to Ballybofey this Friday, Horgan is likely to call on some of his young guns to face Cockhill.
