Derry City – St Patrick's Athl.

In 4 meetings between Derry City and St Patrick's Athl., Derry City have been the more successful side, winning 1 to 0 with 3 draws along the way. The record leans firmly in one direction, but in a rivalry like this one head-to-head form rarely tells the full story once the game kicks off. Goals have rarely been in short supply. These games produce 0.8 on average, with 0% of the meetings bringing three or more, and both teams have found the net in 25% of them, which points to an open contest more often than a cagey one. Where the game is played has mattered. Derry City hold 1-1-0 as hosts in this fixture, and St Patrick's Athl. show 0-2-0 at home, underlining how much home comfort can tilt an otherwise close rivalry one way or the other. Current form reads clearly enough: Derry City have 3 wins in their last 5, scoring 1.2 each time out, and St Patrick's Athl. have 2 from 5, netting 1.2 on average. Momentum like that can quickly override what the historical numbers suggest. Broken down, that leaves Derry City winning around 25% of the time, 75% ending level and St Patrick's Athl. on about 0%. The balance gives one side the edge, but enough draws and surprises to keep it interesting. The last time these teams met, on 19.10.2026, the game ended Derry City 1–0 St Patrick's Athl., and that scoreline still shapes how the fixture is viewed. A new date is yet to be confirmed, leaving that result as the freshest reference point.
