Shelbourne vs Galway Betting Tips - Shelbourne to Win
Shelbourne return to home comforts on Friday evening looking to extend their winning run to three matches after a 1:0 road victory a fortnight ago. William Jarvis´s second-half strike secured a victory that helped maintain the Shels two point advantage at the summit of the division.
Damien Duff´s men have enjoyed a strong run of form coming into this weekend's fixture. Shelbourne won five and lost just one of their last six Premier Division contests.
At Tolka Park, the hosts have claimed victory in three of their last five matches - all by the same 1:0 scoreline.
Galway make the trip to Dublin also in high spirits after an impressive 3:0 win against Drogheda United last time out. Now fifth in the division, the visitors sit 13 points behind Shelbourne in the Premier Division standings.
Away from home, Galway have slipped to losses in their last two fixtures, and a third defeat in succession could be on the cards this weekend. Galway also lost each of their last five away matches against Shelbourne since 2018.
While unlikely to be an easy night´s work, I´m confident Shelbourne can maintain their impressive form with another victory on Friday.
A tight win seems the likeliest outcome with the hosts developing a penchant for low-scoring victories at Tolka Park.
