Friday's League of Ireland Premier predictions including St Patrick's vs. Dundalk

Drogheda vs. Bohemians (Friday, 7.45pm)

Two teams in the bottom half of the Ireland Premier table will meet on Friday when Drogheda United host Bohemians at United Park.

Despite the fact they have both been in mixed form throughout the campaign, they each head into this one with a victory in their most recent league encounter, which will be providing plenty of momentum for them.

We say: Drogheda United 2-0 Bohemians

Drogheda United might be lower in the table, and technically head into the game as the underdogs, but they should have enough quality and momentum behind them to win this one.

Bohemians have been hit and miss recently, and that is something that could cause them issues in this particular contest against a team in good form overall.

St Patrick's vs. Dundalk (Friday, 7.45pm)

Dundalk will be hoping to keep themselves in the Ireland Premier title race on Friday when they make the trip to Richmond Park in order to face St Patrick's Athletic.

Despite that, the hosts have a chance to close the gap on their opponents themselves as only six points currently separate them in the table.

We say: St Patrick's Athletic 1-2 Dundalk

Dundalk will be looking to get straight back to winning ways in this match, and considering how impressive they have been defensively this season that could be something that they achieve.

While the visitors have been another of the strongest teams in the division this season, overall this is a fixture that could prove to be too much for them.
