Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

Concentration will be required as Dundalk and Shelbourne go head-to-head, with almost nothing between the sides in defence, making it difficult to predict who will win. The stats do not supply any conclusive evidence in that regard, but they are pointing strongly towards there being 2 goals or fewer in the fixture. That prediction is available at best priced odds of 1.53 with the bookies, so we've made under 2.5 goals our tip of the day on this occasion.
