🗞️ Team News: Bohemian FC

It seems likely that The Bohs should use a 4-2-3-1 system for this one featuring Kacper Chorazka, Darragh Power, Patrick Hickey, Sam Todd, Senan Mullen, Sadou Diallo, Adam McDonnell, Zane Myers, Harry Vaughan, Connor Parsons and Colm Whelan.

🗞️ Team News: Sligo Rovers

We reckon that The Bit o' Red seem most likely to utilise a 4-3-3 system, choosing Sam Sargeant, Jeannot Esua, Oliver Denham, Sean McHale, William Fitzgerald, James McManus, Daire Patton, Sebastian Quirk, Alex Nolan, Cian Kavanagh and Archie Meekison.

💭 Prediction

It looks to us that Bohemian FC can and should be able to create a decent number of chances and shots on target.

However, Sligo Rovers may well struggle getting on the scoresheet although we do think that they will probably end up seeing enough of the ball to score, too.

We’re therefore anticipating a comfortable 3-1 margin for Bohemian FC come full-time.
