St. Patrick's Athletic will host their nearest rivals Galway United in a bottom-of-the-table clash at Richmond Park this Friday. It really is a must win game for Shane Keegan's men, who are rooted to the bottom of the table. They lie just one point behind St. Pat's, but the Inchicore side have a game in hand on the Tribesmen. St. Pats, on the other hand, could move up three positions in the league table should they win and results elsewhere go their way. Both teams are without a win in six, with Galway recently on the wrong end of a 2-0 result against Dundalk. St. Pat's had a bit more luck in their last tie, grabbing an impressive point away to Limerick. The last time these sides met in ended in a 1-1 draw. Liam Buckley's side have a good record against Galway, only losing once in their last eight outings.
