Best Tip: Shamrock to win

It looks like we could well have a dominant side in this game, and it's Shamrock. Their recent form statistics show what they've got in their locker in front of their own fans, and historical head-to-head (H2H) data proves they can get the job done against Cork too. The odds point towards Stephen Bradley's side coming out on top in the win / draw / win market, and that's our strong prediction for Friday night too.

If you’re looking for a winner in this match, we think Shamrock are the most likely. Our predictive algorithm gives them a 68% chance of victory, and the bookies have them at a best price of 1.27.
