    Tiernan Lynch is hoping that Derry City’s incredible record at Dalymount Park continues on Friday evening as his team aim to bounce back from their defeat to Shamrock Rovers. The Candystripes are eight points behind the League leaders following last week’s 2-1 loss at the Brandywell, but they still have a game in hand. Friday’s encounter with Bohemians marks the halfway point of the season and is at a ground that has provided many magical memories for City fans over the years.

    First meets second in a highly-anticipated encounter between two teams who have battled head-to-head for honours in recent years, with Rovers always managing to stay one step ahead.

    Kevin Doherty’s team have had the Candystripes’ number since the 2024 season, especially in the FAI Cup Final at the Aviva Stadium in November which proved to be Ruaidhri Higgins’ last game in charge. That Cup win has helped fire Drogheda to the top of the League for a lengthy spell already in the 2025 season, and they frustrated Derry further with a 3-1 win at the Brandywell in April.
