¿Cómo llegan ambos equipos?
Shelbourne have shown mixed form at Tolka Park this season, picking up crucial victories but also dropping points against lower-ranked opponents. Their defence has tightened up in recent weeks, which will be key against a Drogheda side known for transitional bursts on the counter.
Drogheda United’s away record has been underwhelming, with only one win from their last six league trips. However, they have displayed resilience in narrow defeats and could exploit any lapses in concentration from the home side. Confidence is fragile but belief remains high after a few spirited displays.
Nuestras previsiones
We anticipate a competitive contest with few clear-cut chances. Both teams are likely to adopt a cautious approach, focusing on defensive solidity and looking to catch the opponent out on the break. Goals may be at a premium, making the under 2.5 goals market appealing.
Given Shelbourne’s marginal home edge and Drogheda’s resilience, a low-scoring draw is a strong possibility. If forced to pick a winner, however, we lean towards a narrow Shelbourne victory by a single goal.
