We said: Derry City 1-1 Galway United

Galway may be sitting below their opponents in the league table, but they have already shown that they can compete with Derry in their previous two meetings this season. While we think a win may be a stretch too far, we believe that the visitors will do enough to take a point from Friday's away fixture. Read more.
