General match analysis

Bohemians sit 3rd, while Sligo Rovers are only 10th, and the gap is reflected in their season-long results: the hosts have won 13 matches, compared with just 5 for the visitors. At home, Bohemians average 1.78 xG and 5.57 shots on target per match, whereas Sligo generate just 0.97 xG and 2.64 shots on target away from home. The visitors’ defense looks particularly vulnerable under pressure, allowing opponents 2.29 xG and conceding an average of 1.64 goals away from home, while losing 64% of such matches. Sligo have failed to score in 57% of their away fixtures, which significantly limits their chances against a team averaging 60% possession at home. Both teams have collected 1.2 points per game across their last five matches, but Bohemians’ advantage in chance quality and home conditions points to a home win.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

Sligo Rovers have a clear problem in front of goal, averaging just 0.64 goals per match this season and failing to score in 57% of their games. Their season BTTS rate stands at 43%, while Bohemians are at 50%, both below the league average of 60%. The hosts are in better attacking form, scoring 12 goals in their last 5 matches, but Sligo have conceded just 5 goals over the same period. Therefore, the most likely scenario is that one of the teams fails to score, making BTTS - No the preferred pick. This No Goal prediction is also supported by Bohemians keeping a clean sheet in 29% of their matches and Sligo in 14%, as well as the visitors' low average xG of 0.97 for the season and 1.15 across their last five appearances.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

The strongest signal points to Over 1.5, as at least 2 goals were scored in 79% of Bohemians matches and 64% of Sligo Rovers fixtures. Bohemians are in a very attacking spell, averaging 2.4 goals over their last five matches, while Sligo conceded an average of 1.0 goal during that period. The hosts should create plenty of chances, with their recent xG standing at 1.49, while Sligo have allowed opponents an average of 2.05 xG in their last five appearances and 2.29 across the season. The visitors average only 0.64 goals per game this season, but the Bohemians defense allows opponents 1.82 xG, raising their projected tally to 1.13 goals. The 2.5 line also leans slightly towards the over, but Over 1.5 offers a clearer probability edge with a projected total of 2.85 goals.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

The most likely HT/FT outcome is a draw at half-time followed by a Bohemians win, as Sligo were level at the break in 50% of their matches this season and in as many as 60% of their last five. However, the hosts are clearly more dangerous after the interval: in their five most recent appearances, they averaged 2.0 goals in the second half, while Sligo managed only 0.6. Bohemians also possess greater attacking potential over the season as a whole, averaging 1.0 goals and an xG of 1.23, compared with Sligo’s 0.64 goals and 0.97 xG. Sligo have lost 64% of their league matches and kept a clean sheet in only 14% of them, increasing the likelihood that an even start will turn in the hosts’ favor after the break. Caution is warranted due to Bohemians’ defensive record, with the team conceding an average of 1.57 goals per match, so full-time draw scenarios remain a significant alternative.
