Dundalk 2-0 Drogheda United
Two goals in six first half minutes ensured Dundalk returned to winning ways - and keep on the coattails of Derry City in the process - as they claimed the 171st Louth Derby at Casey's Field.
United made the short trip up the M1 having won two of the three derby meetings in the Premier Division already this season. And Dundalk had suffered two shock defeats in league and cup before the international break.
