Galway vs Cork City tips and predictions

Galway with reasons for confidence

With 38 points Galway take on Cork City, with 36 points. There's just 1 positions separating the two Division 1 clubs.

It looks like this will be a pretty even contest and there are arguments to be made for both teams. The pick is to support the home team but this could sound foolish at full-time. There's just not enough value in the Cork City price.

The hosts come into the match having shown supremacy over their recent opposition with 7 wins without interruption.

The hosts have had some excellent spells in previous displays. Galway have scored three or more goals in 4 of their recent 5 matches and they've not handed out many freebies. They've only let in 3 goals in their last 9 games.

Cork City have had issues when not on their own turf lately. They've conceded at least once in all of their last 3 away matches. It's a trend that might have got them the hairdryer treatment and will need improvements ahead of this game.

The last time these two sides met was in February. Galway won with a 1-0 scoreline. They'll be seeking a repeat performance.

It's not easy to be sure about what's in store. Don't be surprised if the two sides cancel each other out over an attritional ninety minutes. There are better value picks elsewhere but the No BTTS bet seems like it's the only option that offers any value in that market.
