Odds: 11/10 @
Two sides who find themselves battling it out at opposite ends of the First Division table, Cobh Ramblers will make the trip to Ballybofey when they meet the Finn Harps on Friday night.

Everton manager Roberto Martinez insinuated Manchester United did not allow Tom Cleverley get to Merseyside, as to not bolster a rival.
United, battling to get back into the Premier League s top four after finishing seventh in 2013-14, were looking to part ways with Cleverley, eventually shipping the midfielder to Aston Villa on loan on deadline day.
Martinez, who linked up with the England international when he was loaned from United to Wigan for the 2010-11 season, said he was a big fan of the 25-year-old.
But bringing him to Goodison Park was made tougher by United s seeming unwillingness to bolster a rival to their UEFA Champions League ambitions, according to Martinez.
I am a big admirer of Tom, the Spaniard said.
