Predictions

Dundalk FC (home)

  • Dundalk FC currently occupy 4th place in the Premier Division 2026 with 26 points from 18 games, 5 points clear of 6th-placed Derry City, who have 21 points from 18.
  • Dundalk FC have won 5, drawn 2 and lost 2 of their 9 home Premier Division 2026 matches.
  • The Lilywhites have just 1 win, 2 draws and 2 defeats in their last 5 Premier Division 2026 outings, so they are struggling for consistency at the moment.

Derry City (away)

  • Derry City have drawn 4 of their last 5 Premier Division 2026 games, winning none.
  • Tiernan Lynch’s men have been less impressive on the road, winning 1, drawing 5 and losing 3 of their 9 away games in the Premier Division 2026 to date.

Head-to-Head

  • The last two Premier Division 2026 head-to-head meetings have finished all square, with a 2-2 thriller between the sides occurring only 6 weeks ago in Dundalk.
  • Dundalk have failed to win any of their last three competitive home games against Derry City.

Key Players

  • Dundalk FC’s Daryl Horgan has been in fine form of late, scoring 3 of Dundalk’s last 7 goals, and the club’s overall goal threat remains focused around the 5-time scorer’s creativity and finish.
  • Derry City’s top scorer Michael Duffy is also on 5 goals, but with 5 fewer appearances, and Kevin Santos has chipped in with 2 of their last 3 goals for the Candystripes, giving Derry some pace on the break.
  • Daryl Horgan has scored 5 goals in 17 Premier Division 2026 appearances this season.

Betting Insights

  • Derry City averages 0.89 goals per game scored and 1.11 goals per game conceded on the road in the Premier Division 2026 this season.
  • Dundalk have conceded 9 goals in 9 home league games this term.
  • Both teams to Score - Yes at 1.74 and Over 2.5 Goals at 1.98 are also tempting prices, given the attacking quality each side can bring to the game and their tendency to concede when they press forward.

Prediction

  • Stalemate seems probable.
  • With both sides showing inconsistency in recent weeks, another draw seems likely.
  • Dundalk’s Horgan offers enough of a threat to secure a point.
