Shelbourne are fourth in the Irish Premier Division and two points behind leaders Drogheda United. Monday sees The Reds at home to Galway United who are a place and a point below them. Here's our match prediction.
The home side begin this set of fixtures only two points behind the league leaders and a point adrift of the European qualification places. They have only lost one of their ten league games this season with four wins and five draws.
Friday saw them draw 2-2 at Drogheda and did well to get a point as they twice trailed in that game. Home form has seen them win two of their five league games with a couple of draws and a loss to Shamrock Rovers.
Galway United need to bounce back from a 3-2 home loss to Cork City on Friday. That was their second defeat in three league games but both were inflicted on home soil. They have the second best away record in this season's Irish Premier Division.
Two of their five away league games have been won with the other three ending level. The first three this season produced those draws and since then Galway have had wins at Bohemians and Sligo Rovers.
We suggest a double chance bet on Galway to win or draw.
