A lot on the line in USL League Cup as Fanad, Derry clash tonight

The remaining group game in the Donegal News USL League Cup takes place tonight as Fanad United host Derry City Reserves at Triagh-A-Locha (kick-off 7.30pm).

The semi-finals of the competition take place on Sunday afternoon, but all that can be said for certain at this stage is that Cockhill Celtic, the Group A winners, will have a home game, with Letterkenny Rovers, the runners-up in Group A, facing an away semi-final.

Their opponents will be confirmed tonight after Fanad take on Derry with the Group B winners at home to Letterkenny and the Group B runners-up traveling to Cockhill.

There are various permutations heading into the game:

A three-goal win, or greater, for Fanad would mean that they top the group and Derry would get the second spot.

A win by two goals or less for Fanad would see Derry top the group and Fanad advancing in second spot.

A Derry win of any sort or a draw would see Derry City top the group and Bonagee United going through as the second placed team.
