Prediction:
Dundalk 2 – 1 Finn Harps.
Dundalk will wrap up the First Divison title on Friday if they can get the 3 points against Finn Harps no matter what the result is in the Longford vs Cobh game. If both Cobh and Dundalk draw, Dundalk will still be crowned champions, however a Cobh win and a Dundalk loss/draw will bring the title down to the final day when Dundalk face Cobh.
Despite missing some players due to the international break, Dundalk will still get the job done in their final home game of the season.
