SOCCER: Former Galway United striker Enda Curran with Galway Bay FM's Darren Kelly look ahead to Galway United versus Sligo Rovers

For the first time ever at Galway GAA headquarters, Galway United go head-to-head against Sligo Rovers in the Connacht derby of the SSE Airtricity League Men's Premier Division on Saturday (11th July 2026). With both teams currently in the bottom three of the top flight, victory is a must.  United have already beaten Rovers twice this season but their Bit O'Red won three of their four meetings in 2025. Leading up to the game, former Galway  United striker Enda Curran, who scored two goals in an equally important 2-1 victory in this fixture in 2025, joined Galway Bay FM's Darren Kelly to look ahead to the game but first they chatted about an amazing her on the local scene after he retired from League of Ireland football 18 months previously. == Kick-off at Pearse Stadium on Saturday is 5pm and we'll have LIVE coverage here on Galway Bay FM.
