Candystripes Great Value against Tribesmen

Galway Too Good for Derry in Last H2H

Derry City have been defeated in back-to-back games. On the road at Richmond Park, St Patrick's Athletic recently beat them 2-0. Tiernan Lynch's men enjoyed 47% of possession but failed to have a shot on target.

Galway United drew their previous game which was at home. The action at Eamonn Deacy Park ended 1-1 against Shelbourne. The Tribesmen were restricted to just 32% possession and had five shots on goal, while John Martin (own goal) was on the scoresheet.
