The team is on five-match unbeaten run with two wins and three draws recorded.

Shamrock Rovers and Derry City face one another quite often but neither of the teams have advantage in head-to-heads. Upcoming match gives the winner third place in the standings so we should expect the opponents to be quite careful in this match and be focused on own defensive line first.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals.
