Goal Statistics

Shamrock Rovers's fans will be hoping for goals on Friday night, not least because Shelbourne FC have conceded in each of their last 7 Premier Division outings. A PG of 1.6 for S. Bradley's side suggests that run should continue.

Shamrock Rovers's defensive record is to be admired, S. Bradley's men having conceded 1 or less in 5 consecutive Premier Division matches. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.2 for Shelbourne FC makes sense in this context.
