St. Patrick's Athletic, Recent FormLast time out for St. Patrick's Athletic resulted in a perhaps unsurprising 0-0 draw against Drogheda United in a match they really wanted to win. They came away from that fixture with 64% of the possession and clocked up 9 attempts on goal with 1 on target. By comparison, Drogheda United managed 15 attempts on goal, with 4 on target.
Manager Jon Daly will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 4 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 8 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have only kept 2 clean sheets in their last 6 home games.
With 4 defeats and just 1 victory in their last 6 league matches, they have had a poor run and will need to turn that around if they want to start climbing the table.
Sligo Rovers, Recent FormSligo Rovers will certainly have been pleased to secure 3 points from their most recent encounter, which saw them run out 1-0 winners in their away fixture against Waterford. In that game they recorded 40 % of the possession, with 6 attempts on goal, 4 on target. Their opponents found the target on 4 of their 16 shots on goal.
9 goals in 6 matches haven't proved quite enough for them in terms of a return in points, and that's despite having only conceded 2 goals in those 6 games, which shows a pretty solid defensive line. When playing away from home, they have scored in 5 of their last 6 games and are on a run of 2 consecutive clean sheets.
They're experiencing a bit of an unwelcome spell of form away from home, having lost 3 of their last 6 on the road and picking up only 2 wins.
Goalscorer Max Mata will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 4 goals in his last 6 league matches for Sligo Rovers.
Not many saw the outcome of the last meeting between these sides as a surprise, with St. Patrick's Athletic running out winners in a match that ended 1-0.
In their last 2 league meetings with St. Patrick's Athletic, The Bit O'Red have not been on scoring form, not managing a single goal.
St. Patrick's Athletic has won the last 2 games they've played against Sligo in the league.
With only Tom Grivosti (Cruciate ligament) and Ryan McLaughlin (Calf) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Jon Daly will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
With only John Mahon (Achilles tendon) and John Wilson (Hamstring) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, John Russell will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
