Derry City Shamrock Rovers betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

Derry City is the favorite to win this match and if we look at the squad of the teams, the trend is for the victory of the home team. On the other hand, the visiting team, in addition to the bad moment, plays against an opponent of great technical and tactical quality, that is, they’ll most likely suffer a defeat. In this way, it’s very interesting to bet on Derry City’ triumph on this journey.

Preview
Derry City and Shamrock Rovers face at Brandywell Stadium, in a match for the 14th round of the Premier Division. In the last league head‑to‑head, played in 09‑03‑2018, Shamrock Rovers got a home win by (6‑1). At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history indicates total balance between these two teams, since there is a record of 3 draws and 2 wins for each team in the last 7 matches. Sure enough, the last time these teams met at this stadium was on 27‑09‑2016, in a match for the Premier Division, they tied (2‑2). The goals of the match were scored by R. Curtis (17' and 19' ), for Derry City, and by G. McCabe (39' ), for Shamrock Rovers. Although this is a match between 4th and 5th of the league table, it’s actually a match between the 3rd best in home matches and the 9th best in away matches.

Analysis Derry

The home team is currently in the 4th position of the league, with 22 points won, after 7 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses. In the penultimate match, they won in a home match against Bohemians, by (3‑1). In the last match, they tied in an away match against Dundalk, by (2‑2). This is a team that usually plays better at home, where they have won 15 points, against only 7 points in away matches.

They haven’t lost any of the last 5 home matches for this competition. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 36 of the last 42 matches have ended with Over 1,5 goals. In the last 10 home matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 4 of their 10 goals between minutes (76'‑90').

Derry City comes for this match after a 2-2 draw against Dundalk, however, and despite a draw, it was considered a great result as they faced the leader of the competition. Usually, the coach Kenny Shiels plays in 4-2-3-1, favoring the ball possession and organized attacks, especially through the flanks: Nicky Low is responsible for creating and organizing the offensive process. On the other hand, and surprisingly, as he plays in a backward position, defensive midfielder McEnuff is the home team’s best scorer with 6 scored goals. Absent from this match due to punishment is Peers.

Confirmed Lineup: Gerard Doherty, Conor McDermott, Eoin Toal, Darren Cole, Jack Doyle, Aaron McEneff, Jamie McDonagh, Ronan Chapman Hale, Ronan Curtis, Nicky Lowrie, Rory Patterson.
Coach: R. Higgins.

Analysis Shamrock

The away team is currently in the 5th position of the league, with 17 points won, after 5 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Bray Wanderers, by (1‑0). In the last match, they tied in a home match against Limerick, by (1‑1). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, since they have won 3 points in away matches and 14 points at their stadium, with 16 goals scored and 4 goals conceded at home, against 4 goals scored and 9 conceded in away matches. In their last match, for the League Cup, they got a home loss against Longford Town by (0‑1). In the last 6 away league matches Shamrock Rovers has a record of 1 win and 5 losses, so they have won 3 points out of 18 possible. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 13 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 4 times and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 7 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 3 of their 7 goals between minutes (31'‑45').

Shamrock, the current fifth of the league, comes for this match after a defeat at home against Longford, by 0-1, thus being eliminated from the Irish Cup. We remember that visiting team have not won for five league matches. In this away match, the coach Stephen Bradley should adopt a tactic very similar to the last match, the 4-2-3-1, privileging the defensive organization and the counterattacks. Graham Burke is Shamrock's top scorer with 8 scored goals. Without great absences to register, the visiting team’s coach must act at the maximum strength.

Confirmed Lineup: Kevin Horgan, Ethan Boyle, Roberto Lopes, Lee Grace, Sean Kavanagh, Joey O'Brien, Ronan Finn, Aaron Bolger, Daniel Carr, Graham Burke.
Coach: G. Patrick Rogan, S. Bradley.
