Derry City, Recent FormThey have a modest amount of points to show from their last 6 games, in spite of only conceding 1 goal, because they have failed to be as predictable in their scoring at the other end despite a reasonable 10 goals. They have had a recent run of 5 clean sheets, and playing at home, they have scored in 5 of their last 6 games.
They have been performing well at Ryan McBride Brandywell Stadium recently and are unbeaten in their last 11 home games.
On an individual basis, Jamie McGonigle has scored in each of Derry City's last 4 league games at Ryan McBride Brandywell Stadium.
Drogheda United, Recent FormManager Kevin Doherty will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 13 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 5 goals they managed at the other end. They've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 away games.
They've had a bad run of form away from home recently, having lost 4 of their last 6 on the road and managing just 1 win.
The previous meeting between these two sides was not one to live long in the memory; that match finished without a goal, and both teams settling for a point apiece.
In the previous 3 league encounters between these two teams, The Drogs have failed to score a single goal against Derry City. In their past 5 meetings, The Candystripes' defence has been pretty stingy, only conceding 2 goals, so Drogheda will have to take their chances when they come. Playing at home, Derry City have conceded at least one goal in 2 of their last 3 league games against Drogheda.
In their last 3 league meetings, Drogheda have failed to record a victory against Derry City.
With only Ciaron Harkin (Unknown) and Colm Whelan (Knee) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Ruaidhrí Higgins will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
Drogheda manager Kevin Doherty has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
