In their opening 12 second-tier contests this season, they have recorded seven wins, three draws and two defeats, scoring 28 and conceding 12 in return. Along with opening the midweek fixtures sat just two points adrift of climbing to top spot, it should also be noted that Drogheda hold the best-attacking record in the First Division. As for their previous run of results, Tuesday’s hosts have collected seven points over their last three second-tier contests and they have also lost just one of their previous 10 First Division matchups. It is also worth highlighting, out of those 10 contests, seven of those have finished with over 2.5 goals by the final whistle.

As for the visitors, continuing on what has been a woeful run of form, Shamrock Rovers II have found themselves freefall down the First Division standings. In their 12 matchups this season, they have recorded just two wins, two draws and eight defeats, scoring 12 and conceding 17 in return. Along with collecting just a points tally of eight of a possible 36, they open the midweek fixtures sat way down in eighth and it should also be noted that they hold the third-worst defensive record in the division. As for their previous run of results, Shamrock II have lost each of their last four second-tier contests on the bounce, shipping over 1.5 goals in all bar one of those appearances. It’s also worth highlighting, three of their last four away fixtures have also finished with over 2.5 goals by full-time.
