Bohemians will travel to Division One runaway leaders Galway United in the FAI Cup semi-finals next month.

Cork City host St Patrick’s Athletic in the other semi-final, following Tuesday’s draw at FAI HQ.

Galway have already knocked out two Premier Division sides on their way to the final four, beating UCD 5-1 before an eye-catching 4-0 dismissal of Dundalk in the quarterfinals. John Caulfield’s side will face Bohemians at Eamonn Deacy Park on Saturday, October 7th at 2.40pm. The second semi-final kicks off at the same time the following day.

In the women’s draw, reigning champions Shelbourne are away against Shamrock Rovers with Sligo Rovers hosting last season’s finalists Athlone Town.
