We said: Shelbourne 2-0 Sligo Rovers

Shelbourne's impressive run of form coming into this game compared to Sligo's series of disappointing results leaves the hosts as strong favourites to take the three points here, and we expect them to do just that. The visitors have failed to score in six of their last 10 outings and we believe that streak will continue against the defensively solid home team. Read more.
