Hertfordshire derby and opener of St Albans City's 2027 home fixtures in the Isthmian League Premier Division.
St Albans City take on Cheshunt at Clarence Park on Saturday 2 January, a Hertfordshire derby that opens the club's home league fixtures for 2027. Both sides play in the Isthmian League Premier Division, and since they're neighbours in the same county, this is one of the local clashes that tends to draw a bit more attention than your average league game. It's the first home match of the new year, so it's a good spot to get back into the swing of things.
Clarence Park on York Road is the home ground of St Albans City, and it's where they play their public home fixtures and host matchday events. It's a ground with a capacity of 5,007, with 4,340 of those standing, and it's shared with St Albans City Reserves, Watford U21, and St Albans City Women. It was also the former home of Maccabi London Lions. If you're coming from out of town, the Clarence Park Car Park is free and about a two-minute walk from the ground, with St Albans Station Way and Ridgmont Road station car parks as alternatives if you're arriving by train.
