Bohemian FC vs. Shelbourne Match Preview Article
Welcome to the Turboscores match preview of the upcoming match between Bohemian FC and Shelbourne, taking place on Friday, 06 September 2024, at Dalymount Park in Dublin.
Bohemian FC, Recent Form
Bohemian FC will be very happy having secured 3 points in their last match with a significant 2-1 home win against Shamrock Rovers. In that game they had 55% possession and managed 14 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Shamrock Rovers who had 19 attempts and 7 on target.
It's fair to say that manager Alan Reynolds will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 8 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 10 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they've conceded a goal in each of their last 8 home games.
It's been a disappointing spell of home league form lately, having managed to rack up just 1 victory and 3 defeats in their last 6 matches.
Shelbourne, Recent Form
Shelbourne head into this match with some confidence in the knowledge that they recorded a solid 1-0 away win against Dundalk in their last league encounter. Their share of possession in that meeting was 53%, while racking up 9 shots along the way, 2 of which were on target. Dundalk had 14 shots on goal with 3 on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 6 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 4 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They've kept a clean sheet in 3 of their last 6 away games, and this season they have scored in 12 of their 14 games played on the road.
They have had a strong run of away form recently, being undefeated in 5 of their last 6 games on the road and picking up 4 wins along the way. They've had a reasonably strong showing playing away from home this season, having been unbeaten in 12 of their 14 league games on the road this season.
On an individual basis, Evan Caffrey will be looking to cause Bohemian FC some problems having scored 2 goals in Shelbourne's last 6 away games in the league.
