Matchday 5 in the Ireland Premier Division will be an intriguing match between Shamrock Rovers and St Patrick's Athletic at Tallaght Stadium. Shamrock Rovers are anchored at the bottom of the table with a point to their name, while St Patrick's Athletic are fourth with seven points. Below is our prediction for the match.
Shamrock returns to the Tallaght Stadium on Friday with the aim of recording their first win in the Ireland Premier Division.
The 2022-23 champions who finished as runners-up in the previous campaign have made an unwanted start to the current season. The Hoops are winless in three games recording two losses and a solitary draw.
In the previous round against Sligo Rovers, their floundering performance hit a new low as they lost 2-1 on the road.
Interestingly, St Patrick's Athletic, who finished third in the previous season and two points behind second-placed Shamrock Rovers have made a promising start to the current campaign.
The Saints kicked off the 2024-25 Ireland Premier Division with a goalless draw against Drogheda United. This was followed by a disappointing 2-1 away defeat to Galway United on matchday two.
However, they have managed to steady the ship and have seen an uplift in form. Coming into this game, they are on a two-match winning streak including a comfortable 2-0 home win against ten-man Derry City on Monday.

Our Shamrock Rovers vs St Patricks Prediction
Shamrock Rovers failed to impose themselves as a favourite in their match against Sligo Rovers and fell to their second league defeat of the season. This time they'll be hoping for a more improved performance.
St Patrick's Athletic, on the other hand, comes into this match high on confidence following back-to-back wins in the league. In the previous season against Shamrock at Tallaght Stadium they won 3-0 and will be aiming for a similar outcome here. We expect an entertaining affair with goals at both ends of the pitch. Our Shamrock Rovers v St Patrick's Athletic prediction: both teams to score.
