St. Patricks has slightly better overall fixtures, but it has the same number of points as the upcoming rival (11). The Saints also lost in the last round, but the scoring was more modest (2-0). And their goal difference is generally the smallest in the league (6-7), that is, a little more than one goal per match on average. The team did not play a single match in the tournament with Over 2.5 goals scored. In general, the Saints played half of its last 12 matches with Under 1.5 goals scored. This is a normal phenomenon for them, and not just some kind of crisis in the attack. For example, there was the same performance in the last championship. In 36 rounds, the goal difference was 29-35.
The teams are roughly equal in their qualifications and scoring fixtures. Both of them lost in their last matches, so it's not realistic to predict the winner of the upcoming match. They are also similar in the manner of game, and the main task is not to let the opponent create danger near its own box. And more than two or three people go to the attack only during set pieces. Nothing will change in the upcoming match. Waterford won in the meeting of the 1st round, but only 1-0. Therefore, the rivals will surely manage to score no more than one or two goals, and maybe the fans will see a goalless draw at all.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals scored
