Derry to set for victory over Waterford
2315
On Friday night, Derry host Waterford United at the Ryan McBride Brandywell Stadium, as the home side look to make up ground on the teams occupying the European spots in the Irish Premier League.
Derry heads into this encounter on a run of just one win in their last seven league games. However, they have drawn four of their last six games in the Irish Premier League, including last time out when they drew 2-2 with Shamrock Rovers.
The poor recent run of form has left them in fourth place in the table, three points behind Bohemians who occupied fourth place and the final European spot in the league.
The home sides recent home league form has been unconvincing, as they have won three, lost two and drawn one of their last six outings on home soil. Their recent home matches in the Irish top-flight have been low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in six of their last seven matches.
Waterford are currently seventh place in the Ireland Premier Division but have games in hand on the teams around them. In fact, they could move to just two points behind Derry if they win both games in hand.
The visitors have been in highly inconsistent form of late. However, a record of just two wins from their last seven league outings is not a great one. Their recent league games have been relatively high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in four of their last five matches in the Irish top-flight.
Waterford’s recent record away from home is poor, as they have won just one of their last seven league games on their travels.
Their recent away games have been entertaining encounters though, with over 2.5 goals scored in six of their last eight matches.
Forebet predicts that Derry will record a victory in a low-scoring encounter to keep on the coattails of Bohemians in the race for the last European spot.
