With Galway United sitting at the bottom of the league table, they will be desperate to pick up some points this Friday night against Limerick at Eamonn Deacy Park.
Having played a game more than all of their nearest rivals, Shane Keegan's men risk falling further behind should Limerick get the better of them.
Limerick are coming off the back of a 2-0 away win over Drogheda United. They currently sit in sixth position, but will be keen to take points off the bottom dwellers and keep in touch with the chasing pack.
The last time these sides met was earlier on in this campaign, where the Tribesmen were able to take a point home after a 1-1 draw at Markets Field.
