The Ireland Premier Division title race could take a decisive turn this Monday when leaders Shamrock Rovers play Bohemians in a crucial matchday 30 fixture. This match at the Tallaght Stadium in Dublin between the 1st-placed ‘Hoops’ and the 3rd-placed ‘Bohs’ could prove to be season-deciding, with the top three teams separated by just three points. Will there be a winner in this contest?
With 62 points from 32 matches (W18, D8, L6), the Rovers are three points ahead of their two nearest rivals – St Patrick’s Athletic and Bohemians. The visitors have 59 points (W17, D8, L7) and have a chance to overtake their hosts with a big win.
Are the hosts in good form to keep their lead intact? Consecutive league wins coming into this round mask their deficiencies, but the visitors may just be looking to make the most of their form. Bohemians have won five league games in a row and perhaps will look to pick up three crucial points on this trip. Read more about our analysis, team news, and match predictions.

Shamrock Rovers - Bohemians Dublin: Form Analysis
The Rovers won 3-1 at home against Drogheda on Thursday, posting their second league win in a row, having won 3-2 at home against Waterford in the previous round. These victories helped them bounce back from a seven-game winless run (D3, L4) in all competitions.
In the league, the Rovers have lost only once in their last seven matches, although they have won only three (D3, L1). It’s the home record that gives the Hoops hope of extending that run with a win, as they are unbeaten in their last 13 home competitive fixtures (W10, D3).
Shamrock scored exactly three goals in four of their last five home league games.
Bohemians have a day less to prepare, after they played in the FAI Cup on Friday, losing 2-0 at home to Waterford. That was their first loss in seven competitive games, though (W6, D1), even winning that stalemate fixture via penalties.
The Bohs will feel confident of their chances, especially as they have seven wins from their last nine away league games (L2), including two in a row.

Shamrock Rovers & Bohemians Dublin Squad Analysis
The hosts have a number of injuries to contend with, as Cian Barrett, Enda Stevens, Victor Ozhianvuna and Danny Grant are likely to be out of contention with injuries – both in the short term and long term.
Shamrock Rovers have used various combinations in recent weeks, although 3-4-3 was their regular system. That could put focus on their top scorers – John McGovern and Graham Burke, who have nine league goals each in this season.
McGovern has two goals each in his last two league games.
Compared to their hosts, the visitors have a settled squad with no major injury absences after the last round of games. That could see them stick to their usual 4-2-3-1 system without any concerns.
That puts their forward Colm Whelan under pressure to deliver, having scored 13 and added six assists in the league this season. The visiting fans will also keep an eye on Ross Tierney, who picked up ten goals and three assists from the midfield.
Shamrock Rovers - Bohemians Dublin Key Points
- Six of Shamrock’s last nine league games produced over 2.5 goals.
- Shamrock scored exactly 3 goals in four of their last five home league games.
- Fifteen of Bohemians’ last 18 league games saw three or more goals scored.
- Ten of the last 11 away league games involving Bohemians saw more than two goals scored.

Our Shamrock Rovers vs Bohemians Dublin Prediction
There’s more context to this game than just the three points on offer. Only three points separate the top three teams, and with only four rounds remaining, nothing can be taken for granted. Bohemians come here on the back of seven consecutive wins, but their record in this fixture has been indifferent. The hosts are likely to be pushed hard, but who will blink here?
Five of the last six matches between these sides, including the last four in a row, were high-scoring games. That’s why our Shamrock Rovers vs Bohemians Dublin prediction is over 2.5 goals.
Shamrock Rovers vs Bohemians Dublin Alternative Predictions
Bohemians Dublin wins
Is this Bohemians’ best chance to take revenge for defeats in the last two fixtures? They have four wins from the last five games before those defeats, so the Bohemians could be looking to upset the leaders. Back a surprise result here with the away team likely to win.
