Seven games remain for Galway United to claw back the four-point lead Cork City enjoy in pole position at the First Division summit.

Each of the top two dropped points to Waterford in the past week but Galway’s defeat at the RSC and Cork’s stalemate against the Blues leaves the Tribesmen a point worse off.
