Sligo Rovers will host league leaders St Patricks in their next Airtricity League encounter. Heading into this match, Sligo Rovers are currently bottom of the 10-team table with 23 points, 11 adrift of ninth-placed Drogheda. An away win will be our prediction here with St Patricks currently on back-to-back wins.
This will be a tough outing for home team, Sligo, having struggled all season and coming here from a 3-1 loss at Galway. Sligo are on a 13-match winless run in the league.
They posted their last victory in this competition in May, away to Shamrock Rovers. Sligo have shipped in a league-high 53 goals and scored only 24 times in 31 matches.
St Patricks arrive at the Showgrounds in contrasting fashion. Whereas their hosts are praying for a miracle in their last five matches, St Patricks come into the match confident of another win.
They have beaten Sligo Rovers in seven of their last 10 meetings and nothing suggests that this trend is about to stop. St Patricks have been tidy at the back, conceding only 25 times in 31 matches, and have only lost twice in all competitions in the last 10 matches.
St Patrick’s lead the Premier Division with 56 points, same as second-placed Shamrock Rovers who have an inferior goal difference but have played a game less.
