ℹ️ Team News: Shelbourne

The Shelbourne manager Damien Duff doesn’t have any fitness worries to speak of coming into this game with a completely healthy squad ready to go.

🗞️ Team News: Dundalk

Due to a mostly full-strength group, there’s only the sole fitness issue for the Dundalk manager Stephen O'Donnell to be concerned about. John Mountney (Cruciate Ligament Injury) won’t be in action.

🧠 Prediction

Our thinking is that Dundalk and Shelbourne could both end up scoring in what appears to be a good match-up, with little separating these two teams.

Will be interesting to see how this one goes, with a good chance of a draw. We therefore think that it’s going to be a tight encounter with a 1-1 draw at the end of this game.
