Are Derry favourites to beat Dublin?

Enda Varley and Steven Poacher discuss the clash between Dublin and Derry — a top-of-the-table meeting in the second tier of the league

Enda Varley and Steven Poacher discuss the clash between Dublin and Derry — a top-of-the-table meeting in the second tier of the league.

Dublin v Derry always promised to be one of the big highlights in the Division 2 campaign and with both on 100 per cent records after four rounds, Saturday’s clash in Celtic Park will attract big interest way beyond both counties.

Dublin and Derry meet in the League for the first since 2015 when Dublin won a Division 1 game by four points in Croke Park. 

Dublin have won seven, lost five and drawn one of their thirteen League meetings with Derry, their last defeat coming in 2014 when they lost a Division 1 game by six points in Celtic Park.

They avenged that defeat six weeks later in the final, winning by fifteen points in Croke Park.

Shane McGuigan (Derry)……2-24 (0-11 frees, 1-0 pen, 0-1 mark)
Stephen Sherlock (Cork)…….0-24 (14 frees, 2’45s’)
