Shamrock Rovers vs Cork City Prediction & Betting Tips (20 June)

In 19 games played in the championship this season, Shamrock Rovers only knew the defeat only three times, during the very first day against the Bohemians, the J4 on the lawn of the Sligo Rovers and once again against the Bohemians on the 11th day 2-3 . On the other hand, since this ultimate defeat, the current leader of the Irish elite is undefeated, a series of 10 days 7V, 3N. To press a little more on the domination of Shamrock in the league, we can mention that he has won 7 of his last 8 games including 3 at home against the poorly classified Sligo Rovers 2-0 and against opponents cut for the top of the ranking: Drogheda 3-0 and always without conceding a goal against St. Patricks 4-0. In date, Shamrock has won his last two championship games on the road on the lawns of Shelbourne 1-2 and Drogheda 1-2. Good last in the championship with 33 goals conceded in 19 games, Cork City clearly needs to win in order to stay in contact with the teams engaged in the fight for maintenance.

The little concern is that the red lantern moves on the lawn of the boss of Irish football this season and that she has not won for eight days in the league for an unfortunate toll of five defeats and three draws. The 5 defeats occurred in the last 6 days. On the lawns of Galway 2-1, St. Patricks 3-2 and Drogheda 3-2. Last weekend, facing the 2nd of the Bohemians championship, Cork City did not have his say 0-2 defeat . 

In the championship leader, the flagship midfielder Matthew Healy (1 goal, 2 assists) will be forced rest following his suspension for accumulation of yellow cards. It is added to the absence list composed only so far by Adam Matthews, injured. The attackers Aaron Greene (6 goals, 1 cake) and Graham Burke (7 goals, 5 assists) will however be well operational as well as the 16 -year -old Crack Michael Noonan (4 achievements) or Rory Gaffney (4 goals) a priori back following his absence during the previous day. Mbeng will purge a suspension (accumulation of yellow cards) this evening and will remain at home.

Bad news therefore for Cork City who must already compose his score without the injured Benny Couto (titular defender), Conor Drinan (long -standing absent) and striker Ruari Keating (3 achievements in 7 league appearances this season). The coach will still be able to rely on the young Dutch talent Djenairo Daniels (4 goals, 2 assists).
