• Date: Friday, 13th, June 2025

Gameweek 20 in the League of Ireland Premier Division features a fierce title-chasing clash at Richmond Park, where St Patrick’s welcome Drogheda United.

St. Patricks head into this clash riding the momentum of their recent league triumph, as Aidan Keena’s pinpoint penalty in the 10th minute proved enough to clinch all three points away to Sligo Rovers last week, pulling them within just a single point of third-placed Bohemians.

Drogheda United, meanwhile, failed to capitalize on Shamrock Rovers’ 1-1 stumble, as they were forced to claw their way back from behind twice before eventually barely salvaging a point in a thrilling 4-goal draw against a gritty Waterford side, which means they remain six points off the top.

St. Patrick's Athletic vs Drogheda United Betting Tips : BTTS

The two sides are virtually neck and neck on the table with just a single point separating them, but with both teams fiercely determined to stay firmly in the title hunt, we’re expecting a lively and action-packed clash where the nets should ripple at both ends. The opening two meetings of these rivals were nothing more than scoreless stalemates that lacked excitement, however, fans are now eager to see both squads open up and transform Friday’s encounter into a thrilling attacking showdown. The attacking flair of St Patrick's Athletic is hard to ignore, as they've been firing on all cylinders at Richmond Park by netting at least twice in all but one of their last eight home outings, and they'll be eager to exploit the cracks in Drogheda’s leaky backline. Even though they have plenty of attacking resources to respond to Friday's challenge, Drogheda Utd's backline has proved easy to break down in recent times with 2+ conceded in four of their last five away trips, so all signs point toward a high-scoring affair in the Irish capital.
