14.03.2025, 22:45

Drogheda United sits pretty at the top of the League of Ireland Premiership with an unbeaten record so far in the league. They’ll be hoping to extend this unbeaten run as they prepare to take on Shamrock Rovers at the United Park on Friday. Shamrock Rovers, on the other hand, has just won a game in the league this season, and although they are a tough team, we think they’ll have a hard time against Drogheda United on Friday. My prediction here is a full-time draw or for both teams to find the net. Let’s analyze both teams’ forms, their key stats, and my expert opinion.
