The top two in Ireland go head to head at Tallaght tonight in a match that could go a long way to determining the destination of the Premier Division title.

A win for Shamrock Rovers would see them open up a seven point gap over Derry City who will feel they can’t afford to lose.

Rovers were held to a 2-2 in the Dublin Derby at rivals Bohemians on Friday night after letting a two-goal lead slip, while Derry got back to winning ways with a routine 2-0 win over Cork City.

It was the Candystripes first win in five and timely victory for Ruaidhrí Higgins’ men with St Pats breathing down their necks in third.

There’s been little between the sides when they’ve met lately with either side winning at the other’s ground already this term. The last ten meetings have seen Rovers win five, Derry four and the other drawn. Rovers have a busy month ahead with their European campaign kicking-off next week and tonight’s clash will be their last league game at Tallaght until August.

Hoops boss Stephen Bradley wasn’t too despondent after the draw with Bohs and if the champions can produce a similar display then they’re a decent bet at even money to claim the three points.
