Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest there's no obvious winner in this fixture, but good reason to think Shamrock and Shelbourne will score at least a couple of goals between them. That has been the case when they've gone head-to-head in years gone by, and neither Stephen Bradley or John Russell has subjected their supporters to too many 0-0s recently either. The bookies are predicting over 1.5 goals too, with best odds of 1.29 equating to roughly a 77% probability.
