Derry City FC (2nd)
Form in the League: LWDDL
Derry City has been displaced from the top of the league table after their sad defeat to Galway United late last month. Derry City played their soul out in that game as they fully dominated the game but they were rather unlucky as Galway got a goal in the 76th minute and that was all for the game. They are now second-placed in the league with only a win from their last 5 league games.
Parick Hoban remains the man for Derry City this season with 12 goals. Their overall league statistics are impressive with 13 victories, 6 losses, and 10 draws from 28 games played.
