The battle for a place in European competition next season hots up in the Irish Premier League as Bohemians welcome local rivals Shelbourne in a real six-pointer. The Boh's form has nosedived of late allowing their local rivals to catch them and then surpass them in the league table. With just two games left of the season, this is match that is tough to make a prediction on.
The league table reveals the importance of this game. Bohemians lie fourth in the table, taking 51 points from their 34 games. Shelbourne are third with 55 points from their 34 games. However, St. Patricks Athletic and Drogheda United are both still in with a theoretical chance having both taken 50 points from 34 games.
Bohemians have taken just one point from their last three league games. They started that run with a 2-1 defeat away to leaders Shamrock Rovers and then they were beaten 2-0 away at Galway United. Last weekend, thet hosted St. Patrick's Athletic at home and ended up picking up a point following a 0-0 draw.
Shelbourne's recent form has been very impressive with four league wins in a row. They beat Shamrock 1-0 away from home and then beat Cork City 2-1 on the road. They then earned a 3-1 home win over Sligo Rovers but in the Europa Conference League, they went down to a 1-0 defeat away to Shkendija last Thursday.

Our Bohemians Dublin vs Shelbourne Dublin Prediction
Our prediction for the Bohemians vs. Shelbourne League of Ireland Premier Division match is: Shelbourne wins.
There's not too much difference between how these teams have performed over the entire season, but Bohemians recent form is very poor, whereas Shelbourne's is far superior and much more consistent. Having won at Shamrock Rovers recently, Shelbourne won't fear this and know a win would secure a European spot. It will be a closely fought contest but we're backing Shelbourne to ease to the win.
