UCD, Recent FormWith Shelbourne sitting a clear 14 places above them in the table, UCD won't feel totally dejected with their 1-0 away defeat by them last time out.
Having conceded 10 goals and scored just 3 in their last 6 games, they have been very fortunate to pick up 4 points. They have been unable to score at home in 4 of their last 6 games, and so far this season they have conceded at least 1 goal in 12 of their 14 games overall.
They will be looking to try and improve on a largely bad set of recent results that have seen them defeated in 4 of their last 6 league matches, with just a single victory recorded. It's fair to say they'll need a serious change of form if they want to start moving up the table. With 10 defeats across 14 games in the league this season, their form has been very disappointing.
Shamrock Rovers, Recent FormShamrock Rovers will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 2-0 home win against Bohemian FC.
Their boss Stephen Bradley will be rightly happy with his team of late, having seen them score 13 goals in their last 6 matches while only letting 3 over their own goal line. Away from home, they are currenlty on a run of 5 consecutive clean sheets, and they've scored in 13 of their 14 games overall this season.
They've had a good run of form away from home recently, with 4 straight wins in a row and are on an unbeaten run of 11 games.
On an individual basis, Graham Burke will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 4 goals in Shamrock Rovers' last 6 league games.
The last time these two teams met Shamrock Rovers enforced their superiority over UCD with a comfortable 3-0 win.
The Hoops will be looking to extend their current run of 8 clean sheets against UCD. The Hoops will feel sure their attacking prowess will yield results in this one, having scored at least 1 goal in the previous 14 encounters with UCD. When Shamrock are away to The Students in the league, they know how to find the net, with 8 goals in their last 3 meetings and an average of 2.67 per game.
Undefeated in their last 14 league encounters against UCD, Shamrock have dominated this fixture in recent times, winning the last 13 times in a row.
Aaron Greene will be feeling confident of netting goals for Shamrock in this one against UCD with his scoring record of 3 goals in their last 5 meetings in the league.
There is only really one injury concern for the UCD manager Andy Myler ahead of this clash, with Sam Todd (Muscle) missing out, which gives Myler a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
Stephen Bradley has a number of injury concerns in his Shamrock squad to contend with: Liam Burt (Muscle), Seán Gannon (Knock), Seán Kavanagh (Muscle) and Dylan Watts (Muscle)
