They have had five overs in 18 matches to date and just an average of 1.5 goals per game this season. Drogheda are another team that almost never has over 2.5 goals unless their opponents score more goals.

Match Result Prediction: Shelbourne to Win

This is a tough match to predict because the teams have had completely different performances this season. Somehow, Drogheda are a lot better on the road right now but Shelbourne have the absolute strongest defense right now and they almost never concede goals. They have allowed 5 goals in nine games at home since the start of the season. This will either be a 0-0 draw or a minimal win for either side. We pick Shelbourne.

Correct Score Prediction: 1-0 to Shelbourne

We believe that Shelbourne will find a way to win this game and the perfect scoreline is 1-0 based on their performances to date.

Shelbourne vs Drogheda United Team Previews

Shelbourne Preview

Shelbourne are a very interesting team. They have a terribly weak attack that rarely scores more than one goal and often fails to score at all. But they also have the best defense in the league this year and this has been winning them points since the start of the season. But a strong defense is not enough to achieve something and we do not expect big things from Shelbourne any time soon.

Drogheda United Preview

Drogheda are having a new tough season and despite the two recent wins in a row, they will finish the season somewhere near the relegation table or even inside it. The team has the 2nd weakest attack in the league and their defense is nowhere near as good too. They oftein fail to score a goal and have been scoring less than 1 per match on average.
