It's early days in the Premier Division and both Bohemians and Sligo Rovers are still hoping for a flying start in order to set the tone for the season. Three points can make a big difference at this stage.
- Bohemians have the most scored goals in the first half (4) in Premier Division
- Sligo Rovers have the fewest conceded goals in the second half (1) in Premier Division
There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.
