Shamrock Rovers Preview
The long-standing front-runners are now third on goal difference albeit holding a game in hand. Rovers’ narrow 3-2 triumph over visitors Waterford last time out terminated three winless matches.
Nevertheless only one home defeat all year is the LOI Premier Division’s best performance with 36 points successfully accrued on Tallaght soil.
Shamrock Rovers 2026 home LOI form – 15 played, 11 wins, 3 draws, 1 defeat
Drogheda United Preview
Slumbering in the danger area on goal difference. Their most recent 2-1 defeat at high-flying Bohemians overturned two straight maximum pointers.
Drogheda United away LOI form – 16 played, 4 wins, 4 draws, 8 defeats
- Score prediction: Rovers coola boola 5-0.
