Waterford footballers return to action this afternoon as they look for a first win in their Division 4 Allianz National league campaign.

It’s not going to be an easy task for Benji Whelan’s charges as Derry are the visitors to Fraher Field.

Waterford have lost their opening two games at the hands of Wicklow and Limerick, and a win today is vital to get the promotion bid back on track.

Derry come to town on the back of wins over Antrim and London.

Déise boss Benji Whelan admits his side will be giving it everything this afternoon.

He added that it will take time for the younger players to find their feet.

Throw-in is at 12:30pm, and Tomás McCarthy will have updates here on WLR
