Prediction: 1-1
Drogheda United
Buoyed by back-to-back wins over Shelbourne and St. Patricks, Derry City will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on Drogheda United on Matchday 22. The Candystripes have been impressive at the back of late and they will continue relying on their rock-solid defence in Friday’s encounter. Bear in mind, though, that both Liam Boyce and Shane Ferguson are banned for the home side.
The Drogs, on the other hand, played out a 1-1 draw with Cork City in their last league match. Drogheda United aim to overtake Bohemians in second place in the standings and given Derry City’s absentees, there is a big value in betting on draw. George Cooper limped off with injury in the last league match, with fellow defender Aaron Harper-Bailey likely to step up. Anyhow, a close encounter is on the cards at The Ryan McBride Brandywell Stadium.
