Darragh Leahy scored the first goal of the game on the 40th minute of the match, putting Waterford in front. Padraig Amond and Liam Boyce added to the score, bringing the match to a 2-1 conclusion.

As Waterford and Derry City meet again, the memory of Waterford's 1-2 win in their Premier Division encounter from 2 months ago still lingers. Waterford's recent form has been disappointing, with consecutive defeats to Cork City, Sligo Rovers, Shamrock, Drogheda, St Patricks, Galway and Bohemians. If they aim to regain control of matches, defensive adjustments will be necessary, given that their backline has lacked consistency, with goals conceded across fourteen consecutive matches.

Derry City, fresh off a series of two wins against Sligo Rovers and Galway, approach this match eager to continue their positive form.

This Premier Division match offers a platform for Waterford and Derry City’s goal-scorers to step up and leave their mark on the contest. Waterford’s Rowan Mcdonald and top finisher Tommy Lonergan have played important roles in ensuring their attack, carefully orchestrated by Matt Lawlor, remains effective. Lonergan has already scored two goals in Premier Division this season, as Mcdonald continues to lead their creative efforts in the tournament with two assists. Waterford’s offense has also been strengthened by Conan Noonan, Padraig Amond and Kyle White, who have provided crucial contributions in the final third.

Meanwhile, Derry City’s attacking options, crafted under Tiernan Lynch’s leadership, have been bolstered by Michael Duffy, the team’s top scorer, and Daniel Mullen, both of whom have contributed crucial goals and assists. Duffy leads Derry City’s scoring charts in Premier Division this season with five goals, while Thomas has been their leading creator in the competition with three assists.
