Shamrock Rovers and St Patrick’s will clash in what's perhaps the game of the week in Matchday 3 of the Irish Premier Division. Each team has won four games in their last ten meetings, and this game could very well go either way. Check out our Shamrock Rovers vs St Patrick’s match prediction before you bet!
It's Matchday 3, but interestingly, Shamrock are yet to play a league game this season after two postponed games. The reigning champions now face a tough task ahead in their first game of the season. St Patrick’s comfortably beat The Hoops last time out.
But in the preview meeting at home, Shamrock thrashed the visitors 4-0. While the H2H over the last ten games is level at 4-2-4, Shamrock has been dominant at home. In The Hoops' last six meetings at home to the Saints, they went unbeaten in five games and won four. In fact, Shamrock has only lost one meeting here to St Patrick’s.
The Saints, as well, have only played one of two games after the match against Galway United was postponed. They opened the season with a well-deserved away draw to Bohemian FC as the underdog. But that was the third goalless league game for the Saints in their last four games, stretching back to last season.

Our Shamrock Rovers vs St Patricks Prediction
We're betting on the better team here to emerge victorious for numerous reasons. Despite The Hoops yet to grace the pitch this season, they enter as reigning champions, so expect a fierce title defence at home. And the ground is also of importance, as Shamrock has been untouchable to the Saints in this stadium since 2016.
St Patrick’s offence is still questionable after opening with a goalless draw and almost no big scoring chance created. Hence, our Shamrock Rovers vs St Patrick’s prediction is that Shamrock Rovers win.
