Shelbourne vs Sligo Rovers Predictions

• Sligo Rovers have only won three times this season.
• Shelbourne have only lost two of their nine home games.

Sligo Rovers’ misery to continue

Shelbourne’s struggles continued with a goalless draw at home to Drogheda United on Tuesday, but they may find more success when they host rock-bottom Sligo Rovers in Friday’s Irish Premier Division encounter.

The visitors managed a third win of the season against Galway United last time out, but two of their wins have come against the bottom three in the table, and they have lost five of their eight league away games, conceding 17 goals in the process.

They lost 2-1 at home to Shelbourne in March, and, for all the hosts’ struggles this season, they have still only lost twice in nine home games.

The Reds have kept a clean sheet in two of their last five at home, and Sligo’s last two defeats have been to nil. With neither side in prolific form in front of goal, backing a home win alongside a tight 1-0 correct score prediction appeals.
