Galway vs Drogheda Prediction & Betting Tips (13 June)

Drogheda have not made the start that they would have been hoping for after finally ending their long absence from the Premier Division, failing to pick up a win or score a goal in their first three matches. Given that Galway have triumphed nine times in their previous 15 home games at this level, they will fancy their chances of winning this local derby.

With 15 of the previous 21 Galway matches at the venue in the Premier Division serving up no more than a couple of goals. This has also been the case in ten of the most recent 15 top-flight fixtures featuring Drogheda, meaning that more of the same is expected when the two sides meet.

Over the course of their last 21 away matches in the Premier Division, Drogheda have been involved in just five contests in which they have both scored and conceded during the same 91 minutes. What’s more, 13 of the previous 18 Galway games at this level have seen at least one of the two sides pitch a shutout, so it would come as a surprise to see both teams score.
