"Bohemians are considering kicking off the 2026 League of Ireland season with another Aviva Stadium Dublin derby with St Patrick's Athletic emerging as the most likely opposition if the Gypsies opt to press ahead with the plan."
"Bohs secured approval from the FAI to begin the 2025 campaign with a Dublin 4 clash with Shamrock Rovers that attracted a crowd of 33,208 to the venue, an all-time record for a league fixture."
Bohemians are evaluating a plan to open the 2026 League of Ireland season with a Dublin derby at the Aviva Stadium. St Patrick's Athletic is the most likely opponent if the Gypsies proceed. Bohs previously obtained FAI approval to start the 2025 campaign with a Dublin 4 clash against Shamrock Rovers at the same venue. That 2025 fixture drew 33,208 spectators, marking an all-time attendance record for a League of Ireland match. The club appears to be seeking to replicate that high attendance and profile with another season-opening stadium fixture.
