Just three crucial games remain in the SSE Airtricity League Premier Division season. Galway United host St Patrick's Athletic at Eamonn Deacy Park this evening in a game that could have a huge bearing on who avoids a spot in the dreaded bottom three in the league table come October 27th. Kick-off is at 7.45pm.
The winner of this crunch league fixture will take a massive step towards Premier Division safety, with just one point separating the sides heading into the fixture.
Both club's played out draws with dramatic endings last week. St Patrick's Athletic conceded an injury time equaliser against Limerick and Galway United had to settle for a 3-3 draw away to Bray Wanderers when Ronan Murray saw his 92nd minute penalty saved by Peter Cherrie.
When the sides met in April and June, both league games finished 1-1. However Shane Keegan's side knocked St Patrick's Athletic out of the FAI Cup at the end of August, coming away from Richmond Park with a 2-0 win.
