Tomorrow sees the 2015 SSE Airtricity League come to a thrilling climax as leaders Cork City travel to long-time leaders Dundalk.  We know Dundalk fans are confident but Cork City will win the league with a draw as they currently lead by a point having overtaken Dundalk who have drawn their last 2 games.

It isn't the first time these clubs have met on the final day to decide a league title.  In the penultimate games of the 1990/91 season Cork City drew 0-0 with Shamrock Rovers while Dundalk beat Galway United 2-0. If left the sides level on points going into the final game in Turners Cross. A win for either side handed them the title while a draw would see them enter a 2 legged play off for the title

Here are the highlights:
