Sligo Rovers vs Shelbourne 02.07.2022

Sligo Rovers quest to keep tabs with the teams at the top of the table failed to gain any momentum last time out as they were held to a dour goalless draw away at Drogheda. They remain in 5th place, a massive distance from the league leaders but still within reach of the other two European qualification places. A win here will certainly breathe life back into their campaign

Back-to-back losses to Shamrock and Bohemians appear to be knocking the wind off Shelbourne’s sail. They managed to steady the ship with a credible goalless draw at home against 2nd placed Dundalk. They actually had the better of the exchange and on another day could easily have picked all 3 points on offer. They will be looking to carry some of the momentum here

This is a crucial game for both teams and we expect a cagey encounter here as well. The opening half is likely to see the two teams trying to hold their ground but the match could open up in the 2nd half when the desperation checks in and adrenalin levels go up. We are therefore backing this match to witness more goals in the 2nd half
