Waterford FC welcome Derry City to the RSC this evening for another vital game in the Airtricity League Premier Division.

The Blues will be keen to get points on the table following a poor run of results in recent weeks, although the performance was better in Tuesday's 2-1 defeat at Shamrock Rovers.

Waterford and the Candystripes drew 2-2 at the same venue in April.

Speaking to WLR Sport, Blues midfielder Shane Duggan says it's a massive game due to the recent results in the league; "It's another home game, massive game for us and it's a game we have to go into and try to pick up the three points, I think it's getting to the stage of the season where we need to get points on the board".

Kick-off is @ 7:45pm, and Matt Keane will have updates here on WLR across the evening.
