Waterford United will look to continue their push towards safety in the 2026 League of Ireland Premier Division as they face top-two chasers St Patricks in a matchday 24 fixture on Friday. This match between the ninth-placed Blues and the third-placed Saints in Waterford is likely to surprise the visitors as the hosts look to maximise their home form, which is the core of our prediction.
With 20 points from 23 matches (W4, D8, L11), Waterford are in the relegation playoff spot and two points behind the safety zone. St Patrick’s have 41 points (W12, D5, L6) and are two points behind second place with two games in hand.
Waterford won 4-2 away at Derry City last Friday to continue their recent resurgence. The Blues have won three of their last four league games, making a compelling argument for salvaging their season. It’s their home form that’s driving Waterford’s revival, as they have lost only one of their last seven home league games (W2, D4).
A 3-0 home win over Galway last Friday gave St Patricks their third win in the last four league games (L1). As they continue to chase a top two spot, the Saints need to find a way past their away struggles. St Patrick's are winless in their last five league trips (D3, L2), including consecutive defeats.
