Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

We're suggesting there's minimal chance that this match will have 4+ goals, and the odds and statistics are in line with KickOff's predictive algorithm on this one. St Patrick's and Dundalk have rarely served up thrillers of late, whether that be in the Premier Division individually or in their head-to-head duals. So, in the absence of a convincing favourite win or double chance market, we're going for under 3.5 goals. That's available at a best price of 1.25.
