Cork City vs Galway United Predictions

• Both teams have scored in 20 of Cork’s 25 league games.
• Cork have just one clean sheet in this competition.
• Galway have just one clean sheet in their last 18 league games.

Struggling pair clash at Turners Cross

Cork sit rock bottom of Ireland’s Premier Division and they host another struggling side in the shape of Galway on Friday.

The visitors are just three points clear of danger and they come into this clash in poor form. Galway are winless in five in the league and have lost their last three.

The standout bet here looks to be both teams to score as both of these defences have been leaking goals. Cork have just one clean sheet in 25 attempts in this competition, with both teams scoring in 20 of their games, while Galway have managed just one shut out in their last 18 league assignments.

It is hard to make a strong case for either of these sides to claim the spoils but Galway may just be able to grind out a 2-1 win. They are on a five-game winless streak in the league but Cork have been woeful this term with just two wins in their 25 games. Galway won 2-1 in a reverse fixture in May and can repeat that result on Friday.
