Match Preview

The Premier Division returns to Dalymount Park on May 15, 2026, where Bohemians and Drogheda United will lock horns in a contest that could shape their respective campaigns. That coronation came from City's £116m summer signing Elliot Anderson - and has been hotly debated in the build-up to the Manchester derby Super Sunday showdown at Old Trafford, which you can watch live on Sky Sports.

Both Bohemians and Drogheda United will be eager to build momentum when they meet in Premier Division. It has been a solid if unspectacular run for the hosts — WWD across their last five with a win rate of 51.61% — and they will want to push on from here. Drogheda United have blown hot and cold, LW across their last five and a season win rate of 25%. Where Bohemians have leaned on defensive discipline, Drogheda United have often taken the initiative going forward, and that stylistic difference should shape the contest. Meanwhile, Paige Bueckers struggled to find her rhythm, going 5-for-13 for 15 points in the loss.

Wing play is likely to be central to the contest. Bohemians will look to stretch the pitch and isolate their wide attackers, while Drogheda United must find a way to compress the space and choke the supply lines. Chelsea have been encouraged to consider a surprise move for Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana, with former Red Devils midfielder Quinton Fortune believing the Cameroon international could suit their style of football.

The fixture features no shortage of talent, and the league's top marksman T. Lonergan — 14 goals this term — will be one to watch. The wide areas will be a key battleground, with full-backs and wingers on either side capable of swinging the contest one way or the other. The former Leipzig winger is so talented, of course, but one suspects Mourinho would have welcomed a holding midfielder instead.

Predicting an outright winner is no easy task given how little separates the two sides on paper. A share of the spoils looks the most probable outcome, with neither side holding a decisive edge — a 2-2 draw feels like a fitting result. With the standings tight and form on the line, this is a fixture neither side will want to lose. All I ever wanted to do was win a championship for the New York Giants.” Beckham Jr is likely to play in the Giants’ first preseason game against the Minnesota Vikings at MetLife Stadium next weekend.
