Galway United FC and Shamrock Rovers meet at Eamonn Deacy Park, Galway on Friday, Oct 16 at 8:45 PM with both clubs firmly in the mix for the European places in the League of Premier Division. Just 2 points separate them in the standings.
Galway United FC come into this fixture drawing too many games (4D in last 5). Shamrock Rovers, meanwhile, arrive drawing too many games (3D in last 5) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.
Despite playing at home, Galway United FC face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Shamrock Rovers have won 6 of 10 encounters, with 4 draws. Their last encounter ended in Galway United FC won 1–3.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Galway United FC a slight edge, but Shamrock Rovers are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
