Expert Betting Tips

It’s always a tough encounter whenever these teams meet as evidenced in their head-to-head stats above. Both teams have clashed thrice this season and it might interest you to know that Shelbourne won all three encounters. However, we expect a different dynamic to this game as The Saints are in exceptional form as we’ve seen in their last 6 league games and we don’t think they’d fall easily here on Monday. We should be scared for Shelbourne as their hopes hang in the balance against an informed St Patrick’s. Shelbourne will give it their all and at least secure a draw. Furthermore, we also expect a tough one here with both teams finding the net.
