Football Bet of the Day: A Cork-er in southern Ireland

Cork City v Galway Utd
Friday 19:45

KR 2 Fjolnir 0 in Iceland last night. It's a result that left us out in the cold, but we're hoping to warm up in Ireland tonight.

Cork City, the Airtricity Premier Division's runaway leaders, entertain 10th-placed Galway this evening and we fancy there'll be a few goals. The hosts, who are 15 points clear at the top with a couple of games in hand, have struck 32 times in winning 10/10 at Turners Cross this term. Most recently, they've scored four times or more in 4/5.

Galway are winless in 11 on the road this term and we don't give them much chance in this one - even if they did manage to hold Cork to the leaders' only draw of the season to date in the reverse fixture. But it's not beyond them to bag a consolation this evening. The Tribesmen have struck seven times in winning their last two home matches, and have scored at least once in 7/8 at home and away.
