Some shook results in there for Harps and Derry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Running total is 52 correct predictions out of 114 predictions made so far this season in the LOI.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So to match day 26 and only 4 matches this weekend too, and the predictions are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Waterford (22%) vs Dundalk (54%)<br><\/strong>The Probability of a Draw between Waterford and Dundalk is 24%<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Waterford (0.85xG) vs Dundalk (1.23xG)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have tickets for this match and it should be a close run game given the position of both teams, and the prediction machine is giving it to Dundalk on a couple of factors, but my heart will have to overrule here. An in person roar I believe will push towards a Blues win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>St. Patricks (69%) vs Longford (10%)<br><\/strong>The Probability of a Draw between St. Patricks and Longford is 18%<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>St. Patricks (1.47xG) vs Longford (0.78xG)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this one St. Pats need to get back to winning ways and may be lucky for them here&#8217;s a fixture against Longford , prediction is a St. Pats win<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Drogheda (31%) vs Sligo Rovers (42%)<br><\/strong>The Probability of a Draw between Drogheda and Sligo Rovers is 26%<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Drogheda (1.22xG) vs Sligo Rovers (1.35xG)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Drogs have held their own on the return to the Premier Division and will prove to be a tough test for a Sligo team that have also done well, but happen to have ups and downs. The predictions are edging towards a Sligo win in one way, and towards Drogs in another, and so I&#8217;ll go for the Draw.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Finn Harps (14%) vs Shamrock Rovers (62%)<br><\/strong>The Probability of a Draw between Finn Harps and Shamrock Rovers is 24%<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finn Harps (1.33xG) vs Shamrock Rovers (1.67xG)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally we get to the Harps against Rovers, with Harps having a good win last time out, but Rovers are going for the league and so a Rovers win here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Had a little breather from the predictions and delighted to see the Blues still in the cup with a tastie tie up against UCD in the cup next.
