Dundalk, Recent FormThe Dundalk squad will want to put the 4-1 away thrashing they received from Waterford firmly behind them and may also need to find something to boost their confidence levels as a consequence. They came away from that fixture with 53% of the possession and clocked up 12 attempts on goal with 2 on target. By comparison, Waterford managed 7 attempts on goal, with 5 on target.
Manager Noel King will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 5 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 8 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have been unable to score at home in 5 of their last 6 games; however, they're currenlty on a run of 5 consecutive clean sheets at Oriel Park.
Whilst they have only lost 1 of their last 6 home games there will be concern over the amount of points dropped with 4 draws from those games. Their performance in the league this season has been disappoinitng to date, winning just 1 of their 15 league games.
Shamrock Rovers, Recent FormShamrock Rovers manager Stephen Bradley will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 2-2 draw in his team's last league outing against St. Patrick's Athletic. In that game they had 59% possession and managed 19 attempts on goal, with 10 on target, compared to St. Patrick's Athletic who had 9 attempts and 4 on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 9, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 7 goals and some valuable points in the process. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games.
There will be mixed feelings from The Hoops, having been undefeated in their last 3 away league games, but drawn the last 2 of these games.
Johnny Kenny will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 4 goals in the last 6 league games for Shamrock Rovers.
In the last match between these two, goals were scored on both sides, with the game ending in a 1-1 draw.
