Irish Premier Division leaders Drogheda United travel to fifth-placed Galway United on Friday evening. The Drogs are only three points ahead of their opponents. Can the Tribesman draw level with a home win? Here's our match prediction.
Galway United have only lost two of their 11 league games but won just four. Five have ended level and the latest of those draws happened on Monday. United drew 2-2 at Shelbourne after going behind in the first minute. Two goals from Moses Dyer helped them share the points.
The Maroon Army have only won one of their last four league games. That was a 2-1 win at bottom-of-the-table Sligo Rovers. Home form has seen them earn seven points from five games but the last two have both ended in defeat.
Drogheda United lead the Irish Premier Division by a point from St Patricks. They have won five matches but drawn the same number with only Shamrock Rovers beating them. Both of their last two league fixtures have been drawn, most recently a home goalless draw with St Patricks.
On the road, Drogheda are yet to lose a league match with three wins and two draws. We suggest a double chance bet on Drogheda to win or draw.
