St Patrick's get ready to host Bohemians for another interesting Premier Division fixture here at Richmond Park.
- St Patrick's have the fewest scored goals in the first half (0) in Premier Division
This is a local derby, usually meaning increased mental strain and significance.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Patrick's and Bohemians.
St Patrick's form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for St Patrick's's two home games in the Premier Division so far this season, having collected 4 points here at Richmond Park.
No payout for St Patrick's in their previous match, an away game at Sligo Rovers that ended in defeat 1-2.
Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Dundalk (0-5).The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how St Patrick's have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 10 games) they have won 5 times, drawn 1 and lost 4.
It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the St Patrick's at home in the league. 2 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.
Bohemians form and stats
Bohemians are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the Premier Division, having played 2 games and collected 3 points (1 win, 0 draws and 1 loss).
Impressive finishing from Flores secured the home win 3-1 against Drogheda United in their previous game.
Prior to that match, the Bohemians manager Devine faced defeat when travelling to Shelbourne and losing 0-1.The schedule is very tough for Bohemians now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Leinster Senior Cup game at Crumlin United is waiting in only two days.
It's early days yet, but Bohemians has scored 2 and conceded 2 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).
Head 2 Head
Last ten meetings between these squads: St Patrick's won five, Bohemians triumphed in three and we saw two draws. seven games with more than 2,5 goals, three matches with under 2,5 goals.
