Fans are eager for the showdown as Cork City and Drogheda meet again, 2 months after their previous Premier Division face-off that concluded in a 3-2 victory for Drogheda. Cork City's form has taken a hit, as they enter this encounter after losses to Shamrock and Bohemians, extending their winless streak to nine games. If they want to stop their recent slide, defensive solidity must be the focus, particularly since their backline has lacked consistency, conceding goals in their last twenty matches in a row.
