Bohemian FC, Recent FormWith Shelbourne sitting a clear 6 places above them in the table, Bohemian FC won't feel totally dejected with their 2-0 home defeat by them last time out. In that game they had 44% possession and managed 5 attempts on goal, with 2 on target, compared to Shelbourne who had 14 attempts and 5 on target.
When it comes to attacking power Declan Devine will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 8 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 8 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. They have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 home games.
Their current form can't be viewed positively, having clocked up 3 losses from their last 6 games and only 2 wins to speak of.
Derry City, Recent FormThe last league instalment for Derry City produced a stunning 3-0 home win over Waterford. They came away from that fixture with a 53% share of the possession and clocked up 12 attempts on goal with 6 on target, in comparison to Waterford, who managed 6 attempts on goal, 0 of which were on target.
It's been a rewarding period in front of goal, with 12 goals scored in their last 6 matches; that said, boss Ruaidhrí Higgins will be less happy with his defence, who have conceded 4 goals in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, and they've kept a clean sheet in 4 of their last 6 games on the road.
There will be mixed feelings from The Candystripes, having been undefeated in their last 4 away league games, but drawn the last 2 of these games.
On an individual basis, Will Patching is giving Derry City's travelling fans plenty to shout about having scored 4 goals in the squad's last 6 away games in the league.
In the previous encounter between these sides, both teams grabbed goals, with the match finishing in a 2-2 draw.
With at least 1 goal in each of their last 7 away matches against Bohemians in the league, The Candystripes have built a decent scoring record that they will be keen to extend. We've seen plenty of goals from Derry City when they've visited The Bohs in the league, in their last 3 games they've scored a total of 6 goals, which is an average of 2 per game.
This fixture has produced a draw on the last 2 occasions that these 2 sides have met in the league, but Derry City hold a slight psychological advantage of being unbeaten in their last 3 meetings.
Derry City player Michael Duffy will be feeling confident about recording goals against Bohemians ahead of this encounter, with a scoring record of 4 goals from their last 5 meetings.
With Keith Buckley (Medial Collateral Ligament) and James McManus (Foot) both unavailable and Rob Cornwall (Cruciate ligament) being out for the rest of the season, Bohemians manager Declan Devine will be glad to have no other major fitness concerns going into this tie.
Ruaidhrí Higgins has a number of injury concerns in his Derry City squad to contend with: Sadou Diallo (Ankle), Cameron Dummigan (Knock), Ciaron Harkin (Unknown), Will Patching (Hip) and Colm Whelan (Knee)
