Preview – Derry City v Bohemians
Derry City vs Bohemians – Monday 10th April 2023 – KO 7pm – Brandywell
SSE Airtricity League of Ireland – Premier Division
Match sponsored by J&K Coaches
The sides currently occupying the top two places in the Premier Division table meet at the Brandywell on Monday evening (KO 7pm), albeit both Derry City and Bohemians are coming into the game on the back of weekend defeats.
Bohs were beaten at home by Shamrock Rovers on Friday past, while City’s unbeaten start to the campaign was derailed by a stubborn Drogheda United
Ruaidhri Higgins admitted that it had been a ‘poor night at the office’ for his charges, but added that he was happy they now had an early opportunity to put things right.
“We didn’t play well against Drogheda, there’s no getting away from that, but with a short turnaround, we obviously now need to switch our attention to Monday.”
“It’s a great game for us- Bohs are a good side and they’ve started the season really well.”
“It’s an opportunity to put a disappointing result behind us and to focus on trying to get a big three points.”
The City manager also brushed aside any thoughts that Declan Devine’s return to the Brandywell would have any impact on the lead up to the match.
“We won’t be thinking about that and I’m fairly sure Declan won’t either. It’s Derry City against Bohemians and hopefully it will be a good game in front of a big noisy Brandywell crowd.”
The home side have no new injury concerns, although Cameron McJannet will miss the match after receiving two yellow cards at the weekend.
The game will be streamed live on LOITV.
