Shamrock Rovers Preview – Can Shamrock continue winning run?
An impressive run of seven wins out of their last eight matches overall have seen Shamrock Rovers build up a dominant head of steam in the Irish top flight and has helped lift Friday’s hosts up into top spot of the Premier Division.
Shamrock Rovers have also been dominant on home turf as well with the hosts winning seven of their eight home games to date in this Premier Division campaign, while the bigger picture shows Shamrock have won 15 of their last 17 home matches.
Derry City Preview – Can Derry overhaul hosts at top?
2nd placed Derry City are just one point behind their league leading hosts, Shamrock Rovers, but they’ve been unable to overhaul their top of the table rivals so far as the visitors have picked up just two wins out of their last six matches overall.
Derry had gained previous wins against UCD 7-1 and St Patrick’s 4-0 but a 2-1 defeat at home to Shelbourne along with being held to draws by Drogheda United, Bohemians and St Patrick’s (at home) mean they still trail Shamrock Rovers.
