Bray Wanderers collected their second big scalp in the space of a week last Friday night with a resounding 4-2 win over Shamrock Rovers at the Carlisle Grounds.
The win comes off the back of their victory at Premier Division champions Dundalk and Harry Kenny's men will be searching for a third consecutive win when they go to Turner's Cross on Friday night.
Cork City, meanwhile, have won 10 from 10 and look the heavy favourites to win the title at this early stage of the season.
That's thanks in no small part to the efforts of striker Sean Maguire who has notched eight goals in the league thus far and has attracted interest from English Championship side, Preston North End.
We know quite a bit about the player and this was a good chance to watch him live with us not playing until Monday," Preston boss Simon Grayson told the Lancashire Post this week.
Speaking to Newstalk's SSE Airtricity League Podcast this week, Maguire admitted he would have to consider any offers that came in from English clubs.
"If the opportunity arises for me to go to England and play in a high level like the Championship, we'll have to talk about it at the time," he said. "I'm fully focused on what to do with Cork City. We're heading in the right direction towards the league title."
Newstalk.com this week also spoke with Shamrock Rovers' strength and conditioning coach, Darren Dillon about setting up his business and working with the League of Ireland club.
On this week's Team 33, Raf Diallo caught up with the Republic of Ireland's record goalscorer, Robbie Keane, who confirmed he would be ready for one last adventure in football.
