Goal Statistics

Drogheda United FC have been abject at the back of late, conceding 2 or more goals in 3 consecutive Premier Division matches. This run could continue, with Dundalk's PG an impressive 2.0.

Dundalk's defensive record is very strong, C. Kilduff's men having conceded 1 or less in 5 consecutive Premier Division matches. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.2 for Drogheda United FC makes sense in this context.
