Shelbourne take on the visitors Bohemians in the round 24 match of Irish Premier Division. The match will be played on Friday, June 14th at Tolka Park (Dublin).
Shelbourne are holding steady at their usual mid-table level in Irish football. The "Reds" have previously won both the league title (a total of 13 times) and the Irish Cups. However, their most recent success dates back to 2006. The current version of the team is mainly interesting due to its manager, Damien Duff, who had remarkable success as a player, representing leading clubs in the English Premier League. As a coach, he is currently keeping Shelbourne in the middle of the Premier Division table. Yes, there was a stretch of 8 matches without a loss, but even then, the team mostly had draws. This is what keeps the team from being in the lower part of the league table.

Bohemians don't currently have any significant advantage over their upcoming opponent. The "Gypsies" take pride in participating in every Premier Division season since its inception back in 1921. They have won 11 championship titles. However, the club from the capital city hasn't been able to add to their trophy cabinet since 2009. In the spring, the team had a sensational start, winning 6 out of 7 matches, but then their results gradually declined, resulting in only 1 victory in 9 matches and 2 points in the last 4. It was only in the previous round that they managed to secure a 3-2 victory over Dundalk in the dying moments of the match.
Previous matches show that Shelbourne have recently managed to change the dynamics in their head-to-head encounters with Bohemians. In the last 4 meetings, Shelbourne have recorded 2 wins and 2 draws without a loss. The odds for the match are currently roughly equal. However, as Shelbourne are playing at home, we bet on their victory with a "0" handicap.
Prediction for the match: Shelbourne to win with 0.0 handicap.
