Dundalk Preview

Dundalk finished in 3rd place last season which is an improvement after several bad seasons. The team will definitely be a contender for the top of the league this year although they did not have the best start. Dundalk have an incredible defense and their attack is one of the better ones in the league but they lost three games in a row and they have to bounce back.

Cork City Preview

Cork City took some time to return to the elite but they finally did it after a massive season in the Irish Division 1 last year. The team won the 2nd tier with a big difference at the top. They scored a lot of goals but their best position was the defense. In the elite this season, it is completely different – their defense has conceded the most goals since the start apart from UCD.
