MATCH PREVIEW: Galway United vs Kerry FC (First Division)

“We’ve prepared well all week, every week is a different challenge, after a good win last week we need to continue that” – John Caulfield, Manager

Galway United take on Kerry FC at Eamonn Deacy Park tomorrow evening (Friday) – Kick-off is at 7:45 pm.

United return to Terryland looking to maintain their 100% start to the season as they face Kerry in what will be the first-ever meeting between the two sides.

Meanwhile, Kerry earned their first point of the campaign with a 1-1 draw at home to Treaty United.

John Caulfield spoke ahead of Friday night’s contest:

“It’s great to see Kerry in the league. They are a new team, but they have plenty of guys with League of Ireland experience, and we are well aware of their attacking threats.”

“It is our second home game – there will be another big crowd.”

“Every week brings a different challenge. We had a good win last week, and we need to build on that.”
