Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

We are anticipating a game with little to choose between the sides here and, as such, we predict under 2.5 goals. That means we a suggesting 2 goals or less will be scored in total as St Patrick's and Drogheda go head-to-head. Good performances all round will be required to deliver us a winner, but we have faith in both sides to deliver precisely that. The statistics and the odds below point in this direction too.

If you’re looking for a winner in this match, we think St Patrick's are the most likely. Our predictive algorithm gives them a 58% chance of victory, and the bookies have them at a best price of 1.73.
