On June 5, Richmond Park (Dublin) will host the match of the 19th round of the Irish Premier Division, in which St. Patrick’s will compete with Derry City. The battle will start at 19:45 CET.

St. Patrick’s

The team has been a national champion for 8 times. Still, the last time it took gold medals was in 2013, after which there were only cup successes in subsequent seasons. “The Athletic” finished in the 4th position in the previous Premier Division, which was a pretty good result. Nowadays, the club from the capital spends the unstable season, alternating good segments with true failures. There were 3 defeats in a row at the junction of April and May. Then the team gained momentum again. “The Saints” were able to win most of the battles, strengthening their tournament positions. On Friday, for instance, it managed to beat UC Dublin with a confident 1-3 score at the away arena.

Derry City

The club is based in Northern Ireland, and even took all possible trophies there. Still, “the Candystripes” have already taken part in “republican” tournaments for a long time and, to be honest, they made a success there. 2022 was a pretty good year – the team took the 2nd place in the Premier Division (which was the best result in a decade and a half) in combination with the FAI Cup trophy – that result became the 6th in the history (the trophy was lifted in 2012 and was followed only by the victory in the League of Ireland Cup 2018). Speaking about the new cycle, it clearly determined to compete for the long-awaited 1st place. There happened some misfires at the beginning of April there – 2 defeats in a row. Still, the competitors are also not stable enough, so it turned out to end the spring, even after the defeat made by Sligo Rovers, in the 1st position. At the same time, a goalless draw in the battle against Shelbourne (despite all the advantage) was followed by a rollback to the 2nd place.

The statistics of head-to-head matches

The last time St. Patrick’s won was back in 2021. There have been 5 victories of Derry City and a couple of draws since then – for instance, “the Candystripes” achieved an away 1-1 draw and a home victory in the current season.

Predictions

Bookmakers still continue to consider Derry City as the favourite of the following battle, but it seems to be in a decline. Thus, we bet on “total: under 2.5” (odd: 1.83).
