Bohemian FC, Recent FormBohemian FC manager Declan Devine will need to rebuild confidence in his squad after their heavy 3-0 away defeat by Shamrock Rovers. They came away from that fixture with 46% of the possession and clocked up 12 attempts on goal with 1 on target. By comparison, Shamrock Rovers managed 22 attempts on goal, with 10 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 8 and seen valuable points lost. They have conceded at least one goal in 10 of their 14 home games this season.
They have been performing well at Dalymount Park recently and are unbeaten in their last 7 home games.
On an individual basis, Jonathan Afolabi will be looking to get on the scoresheet again at Dalymount Park having scored 7 goals in Bohemian FC's last 6 home games in the league.
Shelbourne, Recent FormShelbourne will certainly have been pleased to secure 3 points from their most recent encounter, which saw them run out 2-1 winners in their home fixture against St. Patrick's Athletic. Their share of possession in that meeting was 65%, while racking up 28 shots along the way, 8 of which were on target. St. Patrick's Athletic had 7 shots on goal with 4 on target.
Manager Damien Duff will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 8 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 4 goals conceded in the same period. In their last 6 away games, they have scored in 4 and kept a clean sheet in 4.
Their strong run of form, both away and at home now gives them an unbeaten streak of 8 games in a row.
Seán Boyd will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Shelbourne.
Despite both teams hitting the net in their previous encounter, the match ended in a 1-1 draw.
During the last 2 times these two teams have met in the league at Dalymount Park, The Shels have been unable to break through the Bohemians defence and find the back of the net.
This fixture has produced a draw on the last 2 occasions that these 2 sides have met in the league, but Shelbourne hold a slight psychological advantage of being unbeaten in their last 4 meetings.
Bohemian FC 1 - 0 ShelbourneShelbourne 3 - 0 Bohemian FCThere is only really one injury concern for the Bohemians manager Declan Devine ahead of this clash, with Dean Williams (Ankle) missing out, which gives Devine a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
With only Seán Boyd (Hip) and Kameron Ledwidge (Knee surgery) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Damien Duff will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
