Sligo Rovers, sitting ninth in the table, are desperate to recover from three straight losses as they prepare to face Shelbourne at the Showgrounds on matchday 22 of the Irish Premier Division. All signs suggest another tough night ahead for the home team, with our prediction favouring Shelbourne.
Sligo Rovers are languishing in the bottom two of the Irish Premier Division table with 19 points to their name. Only three points separate them from eighth-placed Drogheda in their bid to escape the relegation playoff spot.
It has been nothing but an erratic showing from the Bit O'Red, who enter this clash having suffered three consecutive defeats. To add salt to injury, they've won just one of their last eight league games (D2, L5).
Their most recent match against St. Patrick's Athletic was supposed to be a one-sided affair, but they held their own to avoid a heavy defeat and settled for a 2-0 loss on the road.
Shelbourne sit comfortably in fifth place with 30 points and are seven points adrift of the top three. They have one game in hand compared to third-placed Bohemians, meaning they still have ground to make up in the race for a higher finish.
Following a 3-0 home defeat against Bohemians in the Dublin derby, the club decided to part ways with head coach Joey O’Brien, who had been in charge for over a year.

Our Sligo Rovers vs Shelbourne Dublin Prediction
Sligo Rovers are far from enjoying a great run of form as they've lost three consecutive league games. Scoring goals has been an issue as they've failed to do so in two successive outings. This and their underwhelming record against Shelbourne in past meetings could be their undoing.
Shelbourne are unbeaten in their last seven league meetings against Sligo Rovers and have emerged victorious on five occasions during that period. Having won each of their last three away meetings against this opponent, they should be untroubled in securing a comfortable win. Our Sligo Rovers vs Shelbourne prediction: Shelbourne Dublin wins.
