St Patrick's and Derry City are ready to display their new people and flair: It's the premier fixture of the Premier Division season.

16-5-9 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Derry City when playing away games on grass, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has artifical turf). Their goal statistics from those 30 matches are 38-29 (scored/conceded).

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
