3983

On Tuesday evening, Finn Harps host Shelbourne Rovers in the Irish Premier Division, as both teams look to kick-start their league campaigns.

Both teams have made underwhelming starts to their campaigns in the Irish top-flight, as the home side has picked up just four points from their opening five league outings. Meanwhile, the visitors are just two points better off.

Finn Harps league campaign has already been something of a rollercoaster, at the moment down they are on a downward spiral, as the home team has failed to win in four league games. To make matters worse, they have suffered three straight defeats against Cork City, Dundalk and Shamrock Rovers.

Their recent league games have been relatively low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in seven of their previous ten league outings.

Finn Harps recent home form has been highly inconsistent, as the defeat against Dundalk in their last home game ended a three-match unbeaten run on home soil and a run of three straight clean sheets.

Top Trends

• Of their last 10 home matches in Premier League, Finn Harps have seen 8 low-scoring with under 2.5 goals

• We have seen 3 consecutive defeats in the most recent games in Premier League of Finn Harps
• In Shelbourne FC's last 3 Premier League matches, there have been under 2.5 goals

Shelbourne made a mixed start to the campaign after winning promotion last season. The new boys opened the campaign with a highly creditable 1-0 win at Cork City. However, the season has gone slightly downhill since then for the visitors, as a 1-0 home defeat by Waterford last time means that they have now lost three of their last four league matches.

Their top-flight games so far this season have been fairly tight, low-scoring encounters, as four of their five league matches have produced under 2.5 goals.

Shelbourne’s away record in the Irish Premier Division has been poor dating back to their last spell in the top-flight, with the visitors picking up just one away win from their last eight outings.

The recent meetings between these two teams have been tight affairs and Forebet predicts that one will finish in a low-scoring draw.
