Drogheda vs Shamrock Rovers 07.07.2023

Drogheda sit just one place above the relegation zone on the table after a string of bad results recently. They have won only won once in their last 5 games (W1 D1 L3). They need to turn things around very quickly, and a home match against a team they beat the last time they met presents a great opportunity to get a much-needed win.

League leaders Shamrock Rovers lost 2-0 to Dundalk in their last match but they still enjoy a 4-point cushion at the top of the table. That loss came against a backdrop of some good performances (3 wins and 1 draw) and they hope they can bounce back to winning ways again in this match. Nevertheless, they will be aware that they have not beaten this opponent in the last 5 head-to-head matches (D4 L1).

These teams have both scored in the last 5 encounters and there is good reason to expect the same trend to continue. Drogheda scored 6 goals and Shamrock Rovers 10 goals in their last 5 matches respectively. We expect this match to score more than 2 goals in total.
