St. Patrick's Athletic, Recent FormWhile they have been strong in attack with 14 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 11 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. They have recently found some good scoring form at home, hitting the net in 5 of their last 6 matches at Richmond Park. They have not been performing well at all defensively, not delivering a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 matches.
They have been on a decent run of form lately at Richmond Park, going undefeated in 5 of their previous 6 games there and notching up 4 wins along the way.
Goalscorer Eoin Doyle will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 4 goals in his last 6 league matches for St. Patrick's Athletic.
Derry City, Recent FormThey have amassed a limited number of points from their last 6 matches, despite only letting in 3 goals; this has been primarily due to their indifferent form in front of goal with 5 goals spread across those 6 matches. On the road, they are showing great consistency in finding the back of the net, having scored in 4 of their last 6 away games. They have shown some resilient performances away from home of late with 3 clean sheets in their last 6 matches away from home.
Derry City will take some comfort from being unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 away games, but with only 2 wins there is some room for improvement.
It was not a positive ending for St. Patrick's Athletic last time they met Derry City in the league, with the game ending in a 0-1 defeat.
The Derry City defence tends to hold pretty firm when they visit Saints in the league, with Derry City conceding just 1 goal in their last 3 meetings. Derry City have managed to keep a clean sheet against St. Patrick's Athletic in 4 of their previous 5 meetings. Playing at home, St. Patrick's Athletic have conceded at least one goal in 2 of their last 3 league games against Derry City.
St. Patrick's Athletic has a poor track record in the league when they host Derry City, losing in their last 2 home games.
With no real injury worries, St. Patrick's Athletic manager Tim Clancy will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
There is only really one injury concern for the Derry City manager Ruaidhrí Higgins ahead of this clash, with Ciaron Harkin (Knee) missing out, which gives Higgins a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
