Derry City have played 12 games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 6-3-3 (wins-draws-losses).

In their previous game, the manager D. Devine led his Derry City to a defeat in the Premier Division match away at Finn Harps. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Brandywell Stadium. Before that game, the 3-0 home victory against Sligo Rovers.

Waterford United form and stats

Waterford United have only collected 12 points from their away games after 3-3-6 (12 played).

Two travels in a row for Waterford United, whose manager A. Reynolds could celebrate last time after the Premier Division win against UCD. A loss against Finn Harps was the result prior to that, in a home game.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Waterford United playing away, we found one game. Results were 1 away win, 0 draws and 0 home wins.

Waterford United has another fixture away, a Premier Division game, against Shamrock Rovers in just four days. A tough schedule for the visitors!

Waterford United find the net in their away games, although not all the time. 13 goals from 12 away fixtures. In the opposite end, Waterford United have conceded 20 goals in their away games.

Head 2 Head

Waterford United - Derry City 2-2 was the story when these teams last met, earlier this season. Last ten meetings between the teams: Derry City won 3, Waterford United won 6 and 1 draw. 6 games with over 2,5 goals, 4 matches with two goals or less.
