Waterford
WWLLLL 📉
Following on from a losing effort in their last game against Drogheda United in Premier Division action, Waterford and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.
In that game, Waterford had 60% possession and 7 attempts on goal with 3 of them on target. Drogheda United had 15 shots on goal with 3 of them on target. Warren Davis (45') and Darragh Markey (67') scored for Drogheda United.
The numbers tell their own story, and Waterford have been scored against in 6 of their last 6 matches, seeing opposing sides hit 10 goals in total. In defence, Waterford have not been doing too well. That sort of pattern won’t necessarily be carried forward here, of course.
Coming into this contest, Waterford are without an away win for the past 2 league games.

🗞️ Team News: Shamrock Rovers
There aren’t many selection issues, with just one fitness concern for the Shamrock Rovers boss Stephen Bradley to contend with from a near full-strength squad. Daniel Mandroiu (Hamstring strain) misses out.
🗞️ Team News: Waterford
Waterford boss Keith Long has some current player fitness concerns. Matty Smith (Knee injury) and Andy Boyle (Hamstring injury) will miss out on this game.
🧠 Prediction
We’re of the view that Shamrock Rovers will, in all likelihood, be able to create a decent number of chances and shots on target.
In contrast, Waterford will not find it easy to get shooting opportunities but we can see them pulling one back during this clash.
We can therefore see a 3-1 winning score for Shamrock Rovers after 90 minutes.
