On Friday night, Dundalk will look to heap misery on bottom club Waterford, while improving their position in the Irish Premier Division.
Dundalk have made an inconsistent start to the Irish Premier Division campaign and currently sit seventh place in the table. They are though still just five points outside the European spots.
This game looks to be the perfect opportunity to catch up to the teams directly above them.
Stephen McDonnell’s team’s recent league record of two, two draws and two defeats illustrate the home sides inconsistency of late in the Premier Division. They do at least head into this clash on the back of a 2-0 win at St Patrick’s.
Dundalk’s home form tells a sorry story too, as they have won just two of their last ten matches on home soil in the Premier Division.
One positive for the home side is that both of those wins have come in their last three home games in the league.
One of the reasons for that poor recent home record may be that they have failed to keep a clean sheet in seven league matches on home soil.
Waterford have endured a nightmare campaign so far, as they are rock bottom of the Premier Division table, having won just two of their 14 games so far, while also suffering 12 defeats in the process.
Despite their poor campaign so far, Waterford are just a point behind ninth-place Longford Town.
A 3-0 defeat against Bohemians last time out was the visitor's seventh straight defeat in the Irish top-flight. The woeful stats do not stop there though, as the defeat also saw Waterford United concede at least two goals for the sixth game in seven in the Premier Division.
Forebet predicts that Dundalk will add to the visitor’s poor results by recording a victory in a high-scoring clash.
