WWWWDD 📈
Shelbourne head into this fixture following a 2-2 Premier Division draw vs Drogheda United.
In that game, Shelbourne managed 67% possession and 14 attempts at goal with 3 on target. For Shelbourne, the goals were scored by Mark Coyle (45') and Seán Boyd (94'). For their opponents, Drogheda United got 11 attempts at goal with 5 of them on target. Oisin Gallagher (21') and Evan Weir (70') scored for Drogheda United.
Their latest results shine a light on the fact that huge efforts have been put in by the Shelbourne rearguard. Shelbourne have been mean at the back, with the total number of goals that have gone past their goalkeeper over the course of their past six matches standing at 4. That trend isn’t assured to follow through into this next game, of course.
Their prior results show that Shelbourne:
- have not been beaten in the league by Bohemian FC in their last 6 games.
- are undefeated in their last 13 league matches at home. So impressive.

📰 Team News: Shelbourne
It doesn’t get much better regarding selection, with just a single fitness concern for the Shelbourne boss Damien Duff to be concerned with thanks to an otherwise robust group of players. Dáithí Folan (Leg injury) misses out.
In our view, The Shels will probably use a 4-2-3-1 formation in the match with Conor Kearns, Tyreke Wilson, Patrick Barrett, Gavin Molloy, Sean Gannon, Mark Coyle, Jonathan Lunney, Liam Burt, John Martin, Will Jarvis and Sean Boyd.
🗞️ Team News: Bohemian FC
Due to a completely healthy squad available for selection, the Bohemian FC boss Derek Pender has no fitness worries to report ahead of this match.
We reckon that The Bohs seem likely to begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 lineup, choosing Kacper Chorazka, Luke Matheson, Jevon Mills, Aboubacar Keita, Patrick Kirk, Jordan Flores, Adam McDonnell, Dayle Rooney, James Clarke, Declan McDaid and James Akintunde.
🔮 Prediction
Our thinking is that Bohemian FC will really need to work well to find the net against this Shelbourne lineup who we think will likely end up scoring and staying ahead.
That’s why our selection here is for a good battle with a 1-0 winning score for Shelbourne when the full-time whistle blows.
We’ll see what happens.
