2246

On Friday night, Dundalk host Shamrock Rovers at Oriel Park in a big game at the top of the Irish Premier Division.

Dundalk

The home team is enjoying a decent season and is in fourth place in the table, just three points adrift of the European spots in the Premier Division.

A four-game unbeaten run in the Irish top-flight, including three wins and a draw, has undoubtedly helped the home side stay around the top end of the table.

A 1-1 home draw against third-place St. Patrick's last time out ended a run of three straight league wins for Dundalk.

Stephen O’Donnell’s team has been strong on home soil lately, as they are unbeaten in six home matches in the Irish Premier Division, having recorded three wins and three draws while scoring at least two goals in five of the six unbeaten home games.

Shamrock Rovers

The visitors are top of the table by seven points and look to be running away with the league title. Rovers enter this clash after mounting a five-game unbeaten run in the Irish top flight, having recorded four wins and a draw.

They have been prolific of late in the Premier Division, as Rovers have scored at least two goals in four of their previous five league outings. At the other end of the pitch, Shamrock has also kept clean sheets in four of their last five matches in the top flight.

Although Shamrock’s recent away form has been slightly inconsistent in the league, they have still won six of their previous eight games on their travels.

The visitors have been prolific in recent away games, scoring at least twice in seven of their last eight league matches on their travels.

What does Forebet predict?

Forebet predicts that Shamrock Rovers will record a victory in a high-scoring encounter to continue their fine run of form in the Premier Division.
