Visitors to get a result

St Pats are favourites to secure all three points on Friday night, but this could be a tricky test for the hosts. Visitors Drogheda are second in the standings, having lost only three of their first 19 matches this season.

The hosts head into this weekend’s clash unbeaten across their first nine home league games of the season, but they’ve picked up the majority of their points against the league’s weaker sides. St Pats have won four of their five clashes with the bottom five, but only one of their home encounters with the top five.

Against the top two sides, St Pats have failed to win across five games, only managing to score twice. That includes home and away draws with Drogheda.

The visitors make this trip unbeaten in four, while St Pats had gone into their 1-0 win at bottom side Sligo with one win in five to their name. The hosts aren’t exactly performing at their best right now, while they’ve tended to fall short in games like this. As a result, back a Drogheda side who have lost one of 17 clashes with sides below them to secure at least a point.
