Our St. Patrick's Athletic v Dundalk predictions, statistics and match poll can be seen below - as well as the best betting odds.
St. Patrick's Athletic, following on from their previous result, will be hoping for more of the same after the 2-1 FAI Cup victory vs Wexford.
Their most recent results show that things are going according to plan in the St. Patrick's Athletic backline. St. Patrick's Athletic have kept it tight, with the tally of goals that have flown into the back of their net over the course of their last 6 games standing at 4. Regardless, we will just have to wait and see whether the trend will be replicated in this game.
Heading into this contest, St. Patrick's Athletic are undefeated in their previous 3 home league matches.
Dundalk come into this encounter following a 1-3 FAI Cup win over St. Mochta's in their previous match.
In their last six clashes, Dundalk have amassed the sum of 10 goals. Dundalk have also scored in every single one of those games. During those fixtures, they’ve seen 9 goals go against them.

A total of 15 goals were produced between them in this period, with 9 for Saints and 6 coming from The Lilywhites. This gives an average number of goals per game equal to 2.5.

In that game, Dundalk managed 35% possession and 7 shots at goal with 5 on target. The scorers were Tyreke Wilson (7') and Shane Tracey (21').
For their opponents, St. Patrick's Athletic got 22 shots on goal with 3 of them on target.
The referee was Aaron O'Dowd.
We think that Saints look set to line up in a 4-4-2 formation for this one, handing starts to Joseph Anang, James Brown, Sean Hoare, Joe Redmond, Luke Turner, Aidan Keena, Jamie Lennon, Romal Palmer, Zak Elbouzedi, Kian Leavy and Ryan Edmondson.
We’re of the thinking that The Lilywhites seem likely to make use of a 4-2-3-1 system, going with Enda Minogue, John Ross Wilson, Rob Cornwall, Bobby Burns, Tyreke Wilson, Keith Buckley, Aodh Dervin, Mayowa Animasahun, Ronan Teahan, Daryl Horgan and Gbemi Arubi.
We feel that Dundalk will likely create enough chances to put one past this St. Patrick's Athletic outfit, but that possibly won’t quite be enough to prevent defeat.
We reckon that it will be a tight encounter finishing with a 2-1 advantage for St. Patrick's Athletic at full-time. Let’s see what happens here.
Looking at the bookies’ prices on the full-time result market, staking on St. Patrick's Athletic can be had for 1.55, backing the draw is 3.9 and betting on a victory for Dundalk gets 5.25. Those are the best of the market prices offered as of now.
