What a game we have in the Irish Premier League on Friday as Derry City host Shelbourne United in a potential league title decider! The Candystripes can’t win the league, but could dent Shels chances of doing so with a win or draw. Our prediction for this huge match has a lot to consider!
Derry City sit fourth in the table, just a point outside of the European qualification places and they could finish as high as second with a win. They have lost just two games at home this season, but have drawn their last four at home, all by a 1-1 scoreline.
They have gone eleven games unbeaten at home. But last time out saw their title hopes die suffering a 1-0 defeat at St. Patricks Athletic.
Damien Duff’s Shelbourne win the Irish Premier League with a victory. They can also win the title with a draw or loss, if Shamrock Rovers fail to beat Waterford. The only problem is that Shelbourne have won just one of their last six away games. A 1-0 win at bottom-placed Dundalk.
Furthermore, Shelbourne’s recent form against Derry City is dreadful. They have won once in 16 games against Derry. Last time out Shelbourne earned a 2-1 win over Drogheda to stay top of the table.

Our Derry City vs Shelbourne Dublin Prediction
Our prediction for the Derry City vs. Shelbourne match in the League of Ireland Premier Division is: Under 2.5 Goals.
Both current form and history suggests this is going to be a tight, nervy game. A win for Shelbourne would hand them the league title. A draw may be enough if Shamrock Rovers fail to win. But their record against Derry City of late is abysmal, and their recent away form almost as poor. Goals are scarce when these two teams meet, so the under 2.5 goals bet is the clear option here.
