St. Patrick's Athletic, Recent FormLast time out, St. Patrick's Athletic recorded an impressive 3-0 home win against UCD.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 7 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 11, and leading to valuable points being dropped. They are showing great consistency at Richmond Park in finding the back of the net, having scored in 5 of their last 6 home games.
It has been a solid run of home form of late, having gone undefeated in 5 of their last 6 matches at home and clocking up 4 wins along the way.
Goalscorer Chris Forrester will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for St. Patrick's Athletic.
Cork City, Recent FormCork City will have been quite satisfied taking a point from their last match against Drogheda United, which ran out a 1-1 draw.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 11 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 11 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. Scoring goals away from home is something they have consistently achieved of late, having notched up goals in 5 of their last 6 matches on their travels. They are in some turmoil defensively at the moment and have been unable to record a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
They've drawn their last 2 league games away from home, but their search for a league win on the road extends even further having gone 5 consecutive games without grabbing all 3 points.
With 5 goals scored in his last 6 away games for Cork City, Ruairi Keating will be looking to add more goals against St. Patrick's Athletic in this match.
Cork City suffered the disappointment of a 1-2 defeat at the hands of St. Patrick's Athletic the last time they met in the league.
St. Patrick's Athletic will be feeling confident about extending their scoring record against The Rebel Army, having notched up at least 1 goal in the previous 8 meetings between the two.
In the last 3 league meetings between the teams, St. Patrick's Athletic has taken all 3 points and has not lost to Cork City in 7 games.
Cork City 1 - 1 St. Patrick's AthleticSt. Patrick's Athletic manager Tim Clancy has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Harry Brockbank (Shin), Tom Grivosti (Hamstring) and Danny Rogers (Finger) are all currently out of contention for this game.
There is only really one injury concern for the Cork City manager Colin Healy ahead of this clash, with Matt Healy (Hip) missing out, which gives Healy a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
