This could be an interesting match as St Patrick's have their presumed home advantage while Shamrock Rovers are ahead 11 points in the Premier Division table.

This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!

These teams are located so close to each other that their supporters eat in the same restaurants, hang out at the same night clubs and give birth at the same hospitals. This means added importance to the game and a vibrant atmosphere.
