Local Derby

On Friday's Football Daily, Phil Egan brings you a full look ahead to tonight's action in the League of Ireland, including our live commentary game of Derry City and Bohemians at the Ryan McBride Brandywell. We build up to tonight’s clash between Derry City and Bohemians, as two unbeaten sides look to lay down an early marker in the Premier Division. The first Louth derby of the season takes centre stage at Oriel Park, where Dundalk FC host Drogheda United with local pride and early momentum on the line. Champions Shamrock Rovers finally get their campaign underway against St. Patrick's Athletic after weather disruptions delayed their start to the season. There’s also a Tolka Park meeting between Shelbourne FC and Galway United, while Sligo Rovers look to respond to a heavy defeat when they travel to face Waterford FC. In Europe, there’s reaction to Celtic FC’s heavy defeat to VfB Stuttgart in the Europa League, while Nottingham Forest take control of their tie against Fenerbahce. We also cover progress for Manchester United W.F.C. in the Women’s Champions League, alongside Arsenal W.F.C. and Chelsea F.C. Women. Plus, updates from Liverpool F.C. on Alexander Isak’s return, fitness news at Chelsea F.C., and growing pressure at Tottenham Hotspur F.C. ahead of a huge north London derby.

It's another local Derby on Clash of the Correspondents as Brentford fan Tom Medd and Chelsea fan Gary Mantle join James to discuss al the latest at their clubs ahead of the GW4 meeting at The Gtech. With the transfer window shut there's discussion on new incomings including what impact Alejandro Garnacho may have at Chelsea and if Brentford forward Thiago is now secure for minutes. But might Dango Ouattara offer a better route into The Bess attack? Or should they be avoided with a tough schedule on the horizon? And what should we make of a potential return for Cole Palmer? Should those without Joao Pedro go and invest? And who's best from Chelsea's defensive assets?
