Shamrock Rovers hosts Finn Harps in round 15 of the Irish Premier Division. The match will be played on Friday, June 11th at Tallaght Stadium (Dublin)
Shamrock Rovers had been waiting for the title for nine years. And they managed to win their 18th championship in 2020. This is a record, as no one else in the local Premier League has more champion’s titles. The club seemed to be ready to defend its gold medals. The Hoops gained 26 points in the first 10 rounds, but some problems began in May. First, after seven consecutive victories, Stephen Bradley's charges limited themselves to a home draw against Derry City and then lost to Dundalk and Sligo Rovers. And only thanks to Gaffney's goal in the 5th added minute, Shamrock Rovers managed to beat Longford Town in the last round.

Finn Harps won the national cup in the 70s and played in European cups several times. But now it is a team that stays in the Premiership with great difficulties. In 2020, there was another borderline place (10th out of 12). Against this background, the club may be quite happy with the current results. The beginning was especially successful: the eternal underdog earned ten points in the first four rounds, although it played against strong Bohemians and Dundalk. However, then the results gradually deteriorated. In the last five matches, Finn Harps scored only four points. On May 24, they defeated an outsider Waterford United (1-2). Scoring in the 1st minute, Waterford was ahead until the middle of the 2nd half but gave away a penalty and quickly conceded two goals. Having 18 points after 14 rounds, Finn Harps take 6th place in the standings.
The clubs have not particularly impressed with their performance in recent weeks. It is unlikely that they will suddenly play good football with high production. We bet on Under 2.5 goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals scored
