Cork City only have one club below them in the Irish Premier Division. They are ninth in the table and on Friday play host to St Patrick's who are second in the table. Can the Red Army get a second away win of the season? Here's our match prediction.
The home side have only earned seven points from their first nine games of the new season. Just one league game has been won with four drawn and a couple of defeats. They are currently in the relegation zone and two points from safety.
City have gone five league games without a win and last weekend lost a lead at Derry City and lost 2-1. They are unbeaten in their last five home league games but four of those have ended level.
St Patrick's Athletic are only a point behind leaders Drogheda United. Four of their eight league games this season have been won and only seven goals conceded. Their last match saw them draw 0-0 at home to Shelbourne.
The draw made it three league games without defeat with two clean sheets kept. They have won six of their last eight away league fixtures.
We tip them to get an away win at Cork City.
