Match description
I predict a Dundalk win (1). At home they average 2.33 goals scored and only 0.33 conceded per game, with a 67% clean sheet rate and 0% home defeats. Dundalk are also far more efficient in shot conversion — the home conversion rate is 14% with averages of 6 shots on target and 17 shots overall, while St Patrick's away conversion is only 7% with the same averages of 6 on target and 17 shots. The visitors are league leaders (position 1) and show an impressive attacking run: 15 goals in the last 5 matches (3.0 per game) and an average of 2.6 points per game, with an xG of 1.90 versus Dundalk's 1.81. Despite that, St Patrick's have failed to score in 50% of their away matches and concede 1.00 goal on average away, which against Dundalk's stable defense (0.33 conceded and 67% clean sheets) gives the hosts the edge. Considering Dundalk's superior home goal output (2.33 vs 1.25), better conversion (14% vs 7%) and unbeaten home record, I assign 55% probability to the home win, 20% to a draw and 25% to the away win.
