📏 Form Guide

Shelbourne
Shelbourne
LWDDWW

Shelbourne are hoping to win again after their last result, the 2-1 Premier Division success against St. Patrick's Athletic.

In that game, Shelbourne had 65% possession and 28 attempts at goal with 8 on target. For Shelbourne, the goalscorers were Cabral (80') and Paddy Barrett (90'). For their opponents, St. Patrick's Athletic got 7 shots on goal with 4 of them on target. Joe Redmond (20') was the scorer for St. Patrick's Athletic.

Their more recent scorelines show that things are going according to plan in the Shelbourne rearguard. Shelbourne have been miserly, seeing the total number of goals that have gone in at their end over the course of their last six clashes standing at 4. That kind of trend might not be carried forward into this next game, of course.

In their last half-dozen outings, Cork City have helped themselves to a tally of 11 goals. Cork City have also not failed to score in every single one of those games. During that period, they have seen 7 goals go into their own net.

🤜🤛 Head to head

A review of their past head to head meetings stretching back to 16/04/2021 shows that these fixtures have been disappointments for Cork City. They have not managed to get any victories whatsoever while Shelbourne have been dominant against them, beating them in 100% of those matches played.

A sum of 16 goals were scored between the two sides throughout the course of those matches, with 13 of them for The Shels and 3 for The Rebel Army. The average number of goals per game works out to 2.67.

The previous league clash between these sides was Premier Division match day 25 on 28/07/2023 which finished with the scoreline of Cork City 0-2 Shelbourne.

On that occasion, Cork City had 44% possession and 7 attempts at goal with 1 on target.

At the other end, Shelbourne had 11 attempts at goal with 3 on target. Harry Wood (20') and Seán Boyd (73') scored.

The referee was David Dunne.

🗞️ Team News: Shelbourne

There is just the lone fitness concern for the Shelbourne boss Damien Duff to be concerned with from of an almost fully healthy squad. Dáithí Folan (Leg Injury) is out of contention.

It seems likely that The Shels look set to use a 4-3-3 system this time and select Conor Kearns, Tyreke Wilson, Patrick Barrett, Gavin Molloy, Shane Griffin, Evan Caffrey, Mark Coyle, Jonathan Lunney, Jack Moylan, Harry Wood and Lewis Temple.

📋 Team News: Cork City

Cork City manager Liam Buckley has a number of players out of action. Rokas Stanulevicius (Unknown Injury), Tiernan Brooks (Foot Injury), Ethon Varian (Cruciate Ligament Injury) and Darragh Crowley (Cruciate Ligament Injury) won’t be making appearances.

We’re of the thinking that The Rebel Army appear most likely to begin the game with a 3-5-2 formation by sending out Oliver Byrne, Kevin Custovic, Cian Coleman, Josh Honohan, Ben Worman, Aaron Bolger, Andriy Kravchuk, Ruairi Keating, Conor Drinan, Jaze Kabia and Cian Bargary.

⚡ Prediction

We’ve got the feeling that Shelbourne have it within them to score at least once against Cork City, who will be up against it getting on the scoresheet.

We can therefore see a pretty comfortable 2-0 win for Shelbourne after 90 minutes.
