Waterford, Recent FormHaving taken all 3 points, with a crucial 4-2 home win over Drogheda United in their last league game, Waterford will undoubtedly be very satisfied with their work. They came away from that fixture with 62% of the possession and clocked up 10 attempts on goal with 6 on target. By comparison, Drogheda United managed 6 attempts on goal, with 2 on target.
It's been a rewarding period in front of goal, with 12 goals scored in their last 6 matches; that said, boss Keith Long will be less happy with his defence, who have conceded 7 goals in the same period. Of their last 6 games played at home, they've have been unable to score in 3 games and only kept 1 clean sheet.
They have had a good run of form recently, winning 4 out of their last 6 games.
Pádraig Amond will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Waterford.
Bohemian FC, Recent FormBohemian FC had to settle for a share of the spoils in their last match, which ran out a 2-2 draw against St. Patrick's Athletic. In that game they had 60% possession and managed 12 attempts on goal, with 5 on target, compared to St. Patrick's Athletic who had 10 attempts and 2 on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 6 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 7, and leading to valuable points being dropped. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
It's been mixed fortunes for Bohemians away from home recently, having won 3 and lost 3 of their last 6 games on the road.
Jordan Flores has scored 2 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against Waterford.

Bohemian FC 1 - 0 WaterfordWith only Barry Baggley (Back) and Cameron Cresswell (Hip) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Keith Long will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
With Keith Buckley (Medial Collateral Ligament) and Brian McManus (Muscle) both unavailable and Rob Cornwall (Cruciate ligament) being out for the rest of the season, Bohemians manager Alan Reynolds will be glad to have no other major fitness concerns going into this tie.
