Match Preview

Ahead of our Sligo Rovers vs Shamrock Rovers betting tips and betting advice, the home side haven’t won in seven games – we have to go all the way back to the first weekend in May to find their last win in the league; a 3-0 win over Limerick City. Sligo have only won one of their last six matches at the Showgrounds.

  • Bray Wanderers 2-2 Sligo Rovers
  • Sligo Rovers 0-0 Finn Harps
  • Sligo Rovers 1-1 Galway United
  • Bohemians 2-0 Sligo Rovers

Coming into our Sligo Rovers vs Shamrock Rovers predictions, the away side have won three of their last four as they look to leave behind their indifferent start to the Irish Premier Division season. Overall, Stephen Bradley’s men have lost just twice in eleven, and while a title challenge is definitely beyond them, finishing as high as the third is a real possibility.

  • Shamrock Rovers 2-0 Bray Wanderers
  • Shamrock Rovers 1-1 St. Patrick’s Athletic
  • Finn Harps 0-1 Shamrock Rovers
  • Shamrock Rovers 4-1 Drogheda United

Sligo Rovers vs Shamrock Rovers Prediction and Betting Advice

The last time these sides met in early April, Shamrock Rovers recorded a 1-0 win over ten-man Sligo in Tallaght, and while that game was close, the clubs have gone in completely different directions since. Influencing our Sligo Rovers vs Shamrock Rovers picks is the fact that the home side just cannot seem to find a win anywhere at the moment, and that lack of form coupled with their players’ ever worsening confidence means they once again go into a fixture as underdogs.

This contest has away win written all over it, so barring unforeseen events, I expect Shamrock Rovers to pick up the points on Sunday.
