A revived Galway United side face Finn Harps this Friday evening in a crucial bottom-of-the-table clash in Terryland Park (7.45pm). Fresh on the back of an excellent result against Derry City last time out, United will enter the fixture as firm favourites to secure their first victory of the campaign. They registered a first clean sheet in an altogether more disciplined performance in the Brandywell and will hope to build on that defensive solidity against Harps. In contrast, the Donegal side go into the game on the back of six straight defeats and having seen his side fail to score in any of those outings, manager Paul Hegarty will be looking for a more ruthless display up front as he looks to prevent United gaining the upper hand in the fight against relegation. Jeff Kenna looks set to stick with the same team which performed so well in Derry. However, he may well have some more of his squad to choose from, with Daryl Robson and John Lester due to return from injury. |
