For Treaty United, a trip to the Aviva Stadium for next month's FAI Cup final would signify remarkable landmark for a club that was only formed in early 2020. Even more staggering is that their men’s side are only in their second season.

Standing in their way of a spot an historic showpiece appearance are the country's most in-form side, Derry City. The Candystripes haven’t lost domestically since May and home advantage makes them obvious favourites. But with a play-off berth secured ahead of their final league outing of the season, Tommy Barrett’s side can go into Sunday with some form of freedom.
