Bohemians need to win against Shelbourne on matchday 35 to retain their slim hopes of winning the League of Ireland Premier Division, as the sides meet on Friday. This match at Dalymount Park in Dublin between the 2nd-placed ‘Gypsies’ and the 4th-placed ‘Reds’ could prove to be a tighter affair, with both teams looking to end their season on a high.
With 62 points (W18, D8, L8), the Bohemians are three points behind the leaders, Shamrock Rovers, with two rounds remaining. If they fail to win here and Shamrock win their match, the title race would be done. The hosts need to keep winning and hope that the Rovers slip up.
Shelbourne have 46 points (W11, D13, L10) and are guaranteed to finish between fourth and seventh. They can look to make their mark here by defeating the Bohemians and perhaps gifting Shamrock the title. Will that be the case, or do the hosts have enough firepower to go past their visitors?

Bohemians Dublin - Shelbourne Dublin: Form Analysis
A 2-1 home win over Waterford meant that the Bohemians extended their presence in the title race. That was also a result that ended a two-game losing sequence, although they were marked just a second win from their last five competitive games.
Playing at home could work to their advantage, though, as the Gypsies have won five of their last six competitive matches at this venue (L1). That included five wins from their last six league games (D1).
Bohemians scored 2+ goals in five of their last six home league games.
Shelbourne won 2-1 away from home at St Patricks last time out to continue their late surge. Three wins from their last four league games (D1) have boosted their chances of finishing fourth, although that’s the highest they can end up.
It is the away form that could be a challenge for Shelbourne, as they have struggled to close out games consistently on the road. Shelbourne won just two of their last nine away league games (D6, L1) with the number of draws hampering their title chances.

Bohemians Dublin & Shelbourne Dublin Squad Analysis
Dawson Devoy is suspended for the remaining two matches, with the Bohemians skipper receiving a red card in the scrap after their defeat against Shamrock Rovers. Barring that, there are no major injury concerns for the hosts.
The Bohs have usually lined up in their 4-2-3-1 formation with Colm Whelan likely to be the biggest goal threat. He has 13 goals and six assists to his name in the league campaign, while Ross Tierney has 11 goals and three assists.
Tierney has five goals in his last seven league games.
Alistair Coote received a straight red card in Shelbourne’s last game and is suspended for this game. There are no major injury absences for the visitors, who are likely to keep tinkering with their formations.
That’s because they have usually lined up in the 4-2-3-1 system but have been using 3-4-3 or a 5-4-1 system in the most recent games. Daniel Kelly and John Martin have eight goals each in the league campaign, making them Shelbourne’s best scorers this season.

Anything less than a win for the Bohemians could end their title push this matchday. Their recent form has been poor with only two wins from their last four competitive games. Shelbourne are out of the race to finish inside the top three, and with three wins from their last four games, they are trying to end the season on a high.
Six of the last ten competitive matches between these sides have seen action from both teams, and that’s likely to continue. That’s why our Bohemians Dublin vs Shelbourne Dublin prediction is BTTS.
