Dundalk FC host neighbours Drogheda United on Saturday (kick-off, 6pm) at Oriel Park in what will be the first Louth derby to be played in the SSE Airtricity League in four years.
The Lilywhites came desperately close to what would have been their first win of the new season on Tuesday night against Derry City at the Ryan McBride Brandywell Stadium.
David McMillan put Dundalk ahead on 53 minutes, but another mistake from goalkeeper Alessio Abibi afforded Cameron McJannett and Derry an equaliser just past the hour-mark.
