St Patrick's Athletic score plenty at home, and Waterford tend to find the net when they are chasing a game, which they will be here. The Saints did the double over the Blues earlier this Airtricity League season, but Waterford grabbed a goal in the 4-1 at Richmond Park and then one in their July stalemate. See why our match prediction is BTTS.
The Saints are among the division's best going forward, currently boasting the 2nd-most goals (45) after Bohemians with 47. But St Patrick's Athletic remain the most lethal at home, with 29 scored in 14 games. They recently blitzed Drogheda United in a 2-0 win that marked three straight victories, all with 2+ goals scored per game.
That's not too surprising for a side that hasn't been stopped for nine straight competitive matches. Interestingly, The Saints have scored against Waterford in eight straight games, so Friday should mark the ninth. At least, that's what you'd expect against the team with the most goals conceded so far. Waterford have allowed 48 goals in 28 games, conceding 1.7 per match.
And while St Patrick's should pick the visitors apart, The Blues are poised to strike back after having scored in 14 of their last 17 games and on their last three trips to this stadium.

Our St Patricks vs Waterford United Prediction
St Patrick's Athletic have scored in nine straight games, and in eight straight against Waterford, so a blank on Friday would be a genuine shock. The Blues do their bit too, netting in 14 of their last 17 and on each of their last three trips to Richmond Park.
That is why BTTS has landed in the last three meetings at this ground, and in three of the last four overall. Both should find the net again here. Hence, our St Patrick's Athletic vs Waterford match prediction is BTTS.
