Shelbourne host Dundalk at Tolka Park on Friday in a Premier Division meeting between two mid-table sides who have both struggled defensively of late. Both teams have shown they can score, but neither has managed to keep things tight at the back in recent weeks. With that pattern likely to continue, our prediction for this match backs both teams to score.
Shelbourne sit 5th and have won just once in their last five league games, conceding 9 goals in that stretch, capping that run off with a 2-2 draw with Bohemians.
Dundalk, in 4th, have been similarly loose defensively, shipping 7 goals across their own last five outings, with a 3-2 loss to Waterford capping that run. Crucially, both sides have kept finding the net too: Shelbourne have scored in 4 of their last 5, and Dundalk have scored in six of their last six league games.
With two shaky defences and two functioning attacks on show, goals at both ends look more likely than not, especially with Dundalk boasting the 2nd-most goals this season.
