St. Patricks vs Drogheda tips and predictions

Highlight reel moments not certain for St. Patricks

Drogheda are an enormous price and this verdict is leaning towards them to put up some resistance.

The hosts have looked out of sorts in some of their latest average performances. St. Patricks are in some patchy form. They've lost 3 of their last 5 games as hosts. To compound their problems, goals are noticeable by their absence. They've only scored 1.2 goals on average over their last 13 matches on their own soil which is fact that should appeal to supporters of the big upset. Their defensive stats at home could be significant in this game too. They conceded two or more goals in 7 of their last 14 home matches. So perhaps the upset is not ludicrous.

Drogheda have posted some commendable results. Their best displays been helped by their confident finishing. They've scored at least once in 10 of their last 12 away fixtures and if they're to get anything from this game their strikers cannot be carrying any fitness concerns. While they are facing a massive task there is still some justification for the visitors to come through this test at the big price. They have conceded no more than once in all of their last 6 matches.

Alternatively there's a pretty poorly rated separate bet in the BTTS market with the Yes option.
