League of Ireland Predictions & Betting Tips
Shamrock Rovers have taken a major stride toward the League of Ireland title following Aaron McEneff’s dramatic late winner at Derry last weekend. Now, with momentum in their favour and squad depth beginning to show, the Hoops look primed to assert their dominance once more.
Shamrock Rovers Tighten Their Grip on the Title
Galway head to Tallaght with a poor historical record against Rovers, and despite breaking a four-game losing streak with a narrow win over Cork, their form remains patchy. With Stephen Bradley rotating effectively and recent comprehensive wins over St Patrick’s, Waterford, and now Derry, Rovers are suddenly clear 2-5 favourites for the league. On current form, Galway look unlikely to pose a serious threat.
Betting Tip: Shamrock Rovers -1 on Asian Handicap @ 2.12
Defensive Woes Continue for St Patrick’s
St Pat’s have looked alarmingly easy to play against in recent weeks. Their defending has become a talking point, and Sligo Rovers may be poised to capitalise. Sligo recently earned an important win in Galway and pushed Shelbourne hard last time out. With home advantage, they look overpriced against a vulnerable St Pat’s side.
Betting Tip: Sligo to win @ 4.00
Kerry on Track for Promotion Push
In Division One, Kerry are proving themselves genuine playoff contenders under Colin Healy. A home fixture against Longford presents an ideal opportunity to continue that charge. With superior organisation and form, Kerry are expected to secure all three points.
Betting Tip: Kerry to win @ 1.82
Summary of Best Bets:
- Kerry to win – 1.82
- Shamrock Rovers -1 Asian Handicap – 2.12
- Sligo to win – 4.00
The title race may be losing its spark, but that opens the door for sharper betting angles elsewhere across the League of Ireland this weekend.
