Goal Statistics

Galway United's fans will be hoping for goals on Friday evening, not least because Sligo Rovers have conceded in each of their last 5 Premier Division games. A PG of 1.6 for J. Caulfield's side suggests that run should continue.

Galway United's defensive record is to be admired, J. Caulfield's men having conceded 1 or less in 9 consecutive Premier Division matches. An average PG rating of 1.3 for Sligo Rovers makes sense in this context.
