I just think that St Patricks are way too lousy on their travels to pose any challenge to Dundalk who currently sits one position above them in the standings. Also St Pats have conceded the highest amount of goals in the league, 21. Their last 6-7 games have seen them letting in an average of 2 goals per game and I believe Dundalk will be able to capitalise after some what a mixed start to the season. Seeven points from 12 would be acceptable for Dundalk in their curent situation and they have shown time and time again this season that they are capaable of beating weaker teams in the league. Expect Dundalk to outscore St Patricks here.

Also we have to consider the fact that the irish league seldom do draws and a large percentage of games are decided by home wins according to statistics. Head to head statistics though favour St Patricks, only two meetings ahve been played between the two in the top tiew competition but in this season, St Patricks have really been just another team. Go for the dundalk boys.

Dundalk -1.25 @ 4.80
