Shamrock Rovers will welcome Molde to the Tallaght Stadium for a UEFA Europa Conference League fixture on Thursday.
The home side come into the clash on the back of a dramatic 3-2 home win over Shelbourne in the Irish Premier Division on Sunday. The defending champions trailed with six minutes to go but Daniel Cleary's equalizer in the 84th minute paved the way for Rory Gaffney's injury-time winner.
Molde had an easier outing, thrashing Ham-Kam 5-0, which leaves them needing just one point from their last four matches to guarantee a fifth league crown. Magnus Wolff Eikrem opened and closed the scoring in a four-goal rout in the first half.
The Norwegian side will turn their attention to the continent, where they currently occupy second spot in Group F with four points. Shamrock Rovers are at the bottom of the pile with one point to their name.
Molde claimed a comfortable 3-0 victory in the reverse fixture last week. Ola Brynhildsen scored a brace to inspire the win.
