National League Preview

Galway United v Cork City (7.30)

Neither of these sides have won in the league for a while but it is Galway who will go into the game in higher spirits after their win in the cup and draw at Waterford last Friday night. Dave Barry will make changes for this evening's visit to Terryland with Gareth Cronin's ankle acting up again and Phil Harrington unavailable for personal reasons.

Noel Mooney will get his first start since before Christmas while Liam O'Brien and John Cotter will probably come into the starting line-up. For United Michael Quirke is back training though not quite ready to play again but everyone else is available for selection.
