The league table in Championship tells a story about these teams so far, with Loughgall leading Dergview by 30 points. Match preview to follow:
It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Championship. That game was also an away game, at Ards. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
Loughgall form and stats
Overall Championship stats at home this season for Loughgall are 5-3-5 (wins-draw-losses).
The home team returns to Lakeview Park after being equal after 90 minutes with Ballyclare Comrades (placed 8th) on their last time out; the Championship game ended 1-1. In the preceding match a 5-2 victory visiting Queen's University.
The Loughgall fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 19 in 13 matches. 14 goals have been conceded.
Dergview form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Dergview so far with only 7 points returning home. The records show 1-4-10 (win-draw-lose). The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Dergview have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone ten consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Newry City AFC game.
It might be tough going out on the road again for Dergview, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 1-3 versus Ards (placed 5th). Preceding that game, the 1-1 draw paying a visit to H&W Welders.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Queen's University in just three days.
The attacking power of Dergview when travelling is not overwhelming with 14 goals scored from 15 league matches away. The Dergview manager I. Sproule has some worries about the defense as 31 goals have been conceded in these travels.
