4491
On Friday night, St Patricks host Dundalk at Richmond Park, as the home team looks to maintain a decent start to their Irish Premier Division campaign.
St Patricks are third in the table after 13 games, just three points adrift of league leaders Sligo Rovers.
Despite their seemingly lofty position in the table, the team from the Irish capital have not been in great form, winning just once in their last five league outings.
A 2-2 draw at Derry City last time out in the Premier Division followed a high-scoring trend for the home side in recent league outings, as five of their last six matches have produced over 2.5 goals.
St Patricks potential title bid could be built on a strong home record, as Stephen O’Donnell’s team has won five of their last six games in the Irish Premier Division.
They have been relatively prolific on their stellar recent home run, as St Patricks have scored at least two goals in four of their last six league games at Richmond Park.
Dundalk are experiencing a poor campaign in the Irish Premier Division, as they are seventh place in the table, eight points shy of the European spots and seven points clear of the relegation play-off spot.
A 5-1 defeat at Bohemians means that the visitors have won just one of their last five Premier Division matches.
The result also means that Dundalk have kept just one clean sheet in their last 17 league matches dating back to last season.
The visitors have found away wins hard to come by of late, as Dundalk have won just one of their last nine games on their travels in the Irish Premier Division.
Forebet predicts that St Patricks will keep pace with the league leaders by recording a victory in a high-scoring encounter.
