Chelsea vs Shamrock Rovers Prediction & Betting Tips - Conference League
by Devesh Jaganath in Conference League Predictions
Shamrock Rovers will arrive at Stamford Bridge on Thursday night to face Chelsea in a matchday six encounter in the UEFA Conference League. The Blues are currently leading the League Phase standings while the Hoops are in sixth place after the first five matches. Check out our match prediction below!
A total of 3,000 tickets were made available to travelling fans and they sold out in no time - an impressive feat considering Tallaght Stadium holds a capacity of just 10,500. This will be the first-ever meeting between Rovers and Chelsea, and the visitors could secure a top-eight finish if they manage to leave London with all three points.
For Chelsea, a single point will guarantee their place in the Round of 16, as they have made mincemeat of all-comers in this competition to date. The hosts are the clear favourites in this one - let’s get into the key stats.

Chelsea - Shamrock Rovers: Form Analysis
Chelsea have looked a cut above the rest in the Conference League this season, currently the only team with a perfect five wins from five matches.
Additionally, the Blues are also the highest-scoring team in the competition with 21 goals to date. However, that has not been confined to just Europe as they are also the top scorers in the Premier League this season.
The hosts enter this match off the back of a 2-1 victory over Brentford at the weekend, a result which took them to seven wins in a row while they are now unbeaten in 10.
Chelsea are also unbeaten in their last 11 home games across all competitions (W8 D3 L0)!
Meanwhile, Shamrock Rovers are also enjoying an impressive European campaign, currently one of only three teams in the competition still unbeaten after five rounds of matches.
Their most recent outing ended in a 3-0 victory over Borac Banja Luka and that marked the third time in the competition that the Rovers have scored two or more goals in a game.
The visitors have also fared well on the road of late, unbeaten in their last six across all competitions (W4 D2 L0) dating back to the start of September.

Chelsea & Shamrock Rovers Squad Analysis
After missing the win over Brentford, Enzo Maresca provided positive updates on both Joao Felix and Romeo Lavia, revealing that both players should be in contention for this match.
Mykhaylo Mudryk has missed four games through illness and could return to the squad this week but Benoit Badiashile is still ruled out for the time being with an unspecified injury.
Longer-term absentees include Wesley Fofana (hamstring), Reece James (hamstring) and Omari Kellyman (hamstring). All three are only expected back in the New Year.
Christopher Nkunku is the joint top-scorer in the Conference League with five goals in four games!
Shamrock Rovers, meanwhile, could be without two players for this trip to London, with the confirmed absentee being Rory Gaffney who has not featured at all this season due to injury.
Markus Poom sustained a knock in the victory over Banja Luka and is a doubt, though he has not been ruled out as yet.

Our Chelsea vs Shamrock Rovers Prediction
Chelsea have been head-and-shoulders better than their opponents in this competition, and the odds in this match indicate what most are expecting - a fairly straightforward win for the Premier League giants.
However, Shamrock Rovers have been in good form in this competition too, and while we do not think they will be able to win this match, we do feel that they could sneak a goal against a changed-up home team. Our Chelsea vs Shamrock Rovers prediction is both teams to score.
