Polls open on Friday in Dublin Central and Galway West, and both races are still wide open. The cost of living is the dominant issue on the doorsteps, rents have just hit record levels, and the fuel protests are still fresh. But that anger hasn't settled neatly behind any one party or candidate.

Christine Bohan, Jane Matthews and Rónán Duffy make their (reluctant) predictions, look at how Fine Gael have outrun Fianna Fáil in both races, and ask whether the change vote has somewhere else to go now (including a Hutch campaign that's been surprisingly active this time round).
