Derry City vs Galway United Predictions

Derry to make home advantage count

Derry City look the best bet when they host Galway FC at Brandywell Stadium on Friday. The hosts have been winners in four of their last six Premier Division home games.

They are sixth in the league, one place and three points above seventh-placed Galway. The hosts have eight wins, three draws, and seven defeats from their 18 games this season, while Galway have six wins, six draws, and six losses.

Derry have been solid at the back this season, keeping clean sheets in three of their last four home games.

Galway have failed to win five of their last six Premier Division matches. The visitors’ blunt attack has been unable to score in four of their last six matches, and in their last three away games.

Derry may be able to edge out Galway in a close game, with a 2-1 win the correct-score pick. BTTS was a winning bet by half-time when the sides last met in April, and six of Derry’s eight victories this season have been by one goal.
