Both teams to score at Derry City vs Drogheda United 10/11 for Friday’s Irish Premier Division contest
Competition: Irish Premier Division
Market: Both teams to score
Odds: 10/11 @ 888sport
Two sides who find themselves almost sat in Premier Division limbo, Derry City will host Drogheda United on Friday night.
Starting with the hosts, managing to pick up what was a welcomed victory last time out, Derry City will be desperate to build off of that result and find some stability. In their 22 Premier Division matchups so far this season, they have recorded seven wins, seven draws and eight defeats, scoring 25 and conceding 28 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 28, Derry open this weekend’s fixtures sat sixth in the standings and two points adrift of Friday’s guests. As for their recent run of results, despite being last seen picking up maximum points against Longford Town on the road, Derry have managed to win just a pair of their last six Premier Division matchups. However, it should also be noted, this weekend’s hosts have seen eight of their last nine top-flight home fixtures finish with both teams finding the net.
As for the visitors, while Drogheda might still find themselves hanging onto their spot in the top-half, they are enduring what has been a worrying blip. In their 22 Premier Division matchups so far this season, they have recorded eight wins, six draws and eight defeats, scoring 35 and conceding 27 in return. Opening up this weekend’s fixtures holding a two-point buffer in the top-five, it should also be noted that they hold the second-best attacking tally in the division. However, as for their recent run of results, last seen getting hit with a 2-1 defeat against Waterford on home soil, Drogheda have lost each of their last three matchups across all formats. It’s worth highlighting, with Friday’s guests seeing five of their last six contests finish with both teams finding the net, we’re backing a similar outcome here.
