Drogheda United vs Sligo Rovers Predictions

  • Drogheda United have won and conceded in their last two games
  • Sligo Rovers have lost 2-1 in their last three away trips, including a visit to Drogheda
  • The hosts have seen both teams score in six of their last seven matches

Two of the bottom four clash

While bottom side UCD are cut adrift, Cork City are hoping to climb out of the bottom two, with Drogheda United and Sligo Rovers both within their reach. The pair are five and six points clear of second-bottom respectively, which would put them into a relegation playoff for their top-flight future.

The pair meet on Friday night knowing a victory would do wonders for their survival hopes. While Sligo Rovers are in the slightly stronger position of the pair, their away woes could cost them for a second week in a row.

Perfect opportunity for hosts

Drogheda United are fresh off two victories, first beating UCD on the road before seeing off Sligo Rovers in the cup last weekend. They won 2-1, adding to Rovers’ woes on the road.

That loss was a third successive 2-1 defeat away from home for the visitors, who have now lost seven of their last nine away trips. While the visitors have scored in their last four games on the road – scoring exactly once every time – their defence isn’t holding up. With Drogheda United scoring five goals across their last two games, they should prove too strong.

The hosts have seen both teams score in six of their last seven games and they’ve won their last two home meetings with Sligo Rovers, so back them to win and concede.
