Bohemians and St. Patrick’s are meeting today starting with the hours of 21:45 on the Dalymount Park in Dublin in a new derby, the 15th stage from the first league of Irish football.
Lately, the game played by the hosts is not a bright one. Bohemians succeeded in only three replays from the list five rounds and due to this outcome they have ended on the ninth place, having 13 points. In five from the last six matches, the students of Aaron Callaghan have marked, but they have also received goals. The exception consists of the failure suffered 17 days ago at UC Dublin. In the previous round, Bohemians has succeeded to make a draw in the stoppage time at Shamrock Rovers. The Bohemians have to put up a good game in front of its fans, after loosing four out of the last five matches played at home. The opponent will be a tough on though, St. Patrick’s.
The captain of the hosts, Owen Heavy is out, ans so are Conor O’Brien and Keith Buckley, the latter being suspended. On the other hands, Stephen Traynor will make a comeback for this game.
“The saints” are fighting for the title of this season, being on the second place with 30 points, just as much as the leading team, Sligo Rovers, but with a match still yet to be played. Last week, St Patrick easily won on the pitch of Shelbourne, Fagan with a brace and Forrester scoring the goals of victory. It was the second consecutive match in which Brendan Clarke has managed to fully bar the gate. After suffering the first and the only failure of this season, 0-3 at Shamrock Rovers, St. Patrick’s has won all the six matches played away, receiving a single goal along this “green” series.
After Anton Flood made his comeback, St. Patrick’s has at his disposal for the derby on Dalymount the complete team.
The two teams have already met this season, at the end of April. Then, on its own pitch, St. Patrick’s did not succeeded in winning against Bohemians, the match ending with 1-1. On the previous visit on Dalymount Park, “The Saints” have won with 3-2. In 2009 they have lost for the last time on the arena of the Bohemians, obtaining two victories from the six matches that took place at that time.
