Athlone
LLLDDL ⚠
Athlone will be looking to improve on their last outing here following the 1-0 First Division loss in their previous game against Treaty United.
Yousef Mahdy (71') scored for Treaty United.
It’s been all too rare in recent times where Athlone haven’t conceded. The facts show that Athlone have seen their defence breached in 6 of their previous 6 games, leaking 8 goals in the process. That kind of trend isn’t assured to be carried forward into this match, however.
Pre-game facts show that Athlone:
- haven't been defeated in their previous 2 league matches at home.
- have not won at home in their last 4 league games. That's never good.
Dundalk
WWWDDW 📈
Dundalk come into this game following on from a 0-3 First Division win with the eclipse of Longford Town in their previous game.
The only name on the scoresheet from Dundalk was Dean Ebbe (55', 62').
In their previous half-dozen outings, Dundalk have bagged the sum of 10 goals. Dundalk have also not failed to score in every single one of those games. During that period, they’ve seen 2 goals scored by their opponents.
Ahead of this meeting, Dundalk are unbeaten in their last 8 league matches away from home. What an impressive run of results.

Prediction
We believe that Athlone will have to perform well to hit the back of the net against this Dundalk side who will likely score at least once to put them ahead.
That’s why we have predicted a very competitive encounter with a 0-1 winning score for Dundalk at the end of the 90.
Looking forward to this.
