Bohemians vs Shamrock Rovers Predictions

• Bohemians have won four of the last five clashes between these two sides
• The Bohs are responsible for two of Rovers’ three league defeats this term
• The home side have won eight of their previous 11 league matches

Is a setback incoming for in-form Rovers?

Shamrock Rovers have taken charge of the title race in recent weeks, with a storming run putting them 11 points clear at the top. After losing the title last term, Rovers have been excellent in this campaign, losing only three of their 22 games.

However, two of those three defeats have been at the hands of Bohemians. The Bohs have won four of the previous five contests between the two, including three successive home wins.

While the Bohs had a slow start to the campaign, they’ve really clicked into gear. These two sides are the only two teams to have won eight league games since April 18th. Rovers have done it in 13 matches, but the Bohs have managed it in only 11.

The hosts have won five of their last six games at their own ground. Their only slip-up in that run was a bit of an aberration, as they lost 2-1 to Waterford despite winning the xG battle 3.29 to 0.29.

The Bohs have won five of their six home meetings with the top six, including three 1-0 wins, so they’re backed to grind out another result in a big game.
