Match previews

The League of Ireland title race looks all but over with Shamrock Rovers seven points clear of the chasing pack with a game in hand, but the battle for European places continues in the Premier Division on Monday evening.

All six teams playing still harbour some chance of finishing in the top four, with Bohemians desperately needing to beat St Patrick's at Dalymount Park.

Nine defeats from their 26 games is a poor return for Bohs, even if Pat's have lost eight in the league.

The visitors have been in good form, though. Pat's have conceded just ten goals in 12 games on the road and Bohs are far too inconsistent to back with any confidence. Taking Saints in the draw-no-bet market looks the best strategy.

There shouldn't be much in it when Sligo Rovers host Dundalk. A draw would not be a bad result for the Lilywhites, who are battling to finish in the top three.

Dundalk are tough to beat but home advantage gives Sligo a chance so the draw looks an appealing proposition.

Derry City have been well supported to beat Shelbourne, who shocked City at Brandywell earlier this season.

The odds look about right, though, as Derry are still not scoring as many goals as they should while Shelbourne are inconsitent.
