Galway United return to Eamonn Deacy Park this weekend as pre-season preparation enters its final stages ahead of the return of the League of Ireland next weekend.

United take on PSC (Pro Soccer Consulting Ltd. ) at Eamonn Deacy Park this Saturday, February 8 at 2pm. PSC are an American-based side that help players find their way into the professional game. Season ticket holders can go for free, while general match tickets are €5.

John Caulfield's side have been preparing for the new season with a warm weather training camp in Spain since late January. United played two friendlies, winning each of them.

Firstly, goals from David Hurley, Stephen Walsh, and Vincent Borden gave United a 3-0 victory over Juventud Torremolinos. In the second pre-season friendly, the Tribesmen overcame UD San Pedro 2-0 with goals coming from Patrick Hickey and Jimmy Keohane.

The game against PSC will give fans their first opportunity to see how United are shaping up ahead of their season opener against Cork City on Friday, February 14.

It is also a chance for fans to catch a glimpse of new signings Moses Dyer, Daniel Stynes, Evan Watts, and Sean Kerrigan.
