Just a handful of teams boost 100 per cent records after three rounds of the Allianz Football League and Derry will be keen to preserve theirs for a bit longer.
The Ulster champions have defeated Limerick, Louth and Meath thus far, but they’ll face a step up in class when they visit Kildare this weekend.
The Lilywhites were unfortunate to be relegated from Division One last season after picking up five points, but Glenn Ryan’s side have already lost two games in Division Two this term and needed a last-gasp Neil Flynn to clinch their first win over Clare last Sunday.
Rory Gallagher’s side, in stark contrast, were impressive winners over Meath last Saturday night as first half goals from Ethan Doherty and Niall Toner helped them to a 2-15 to 1-7 win at Owenbeg.
