With just 8 games to the end of the season, Shelbourne cannot afford to lose a game as it’s costly and detrimental to their dreams of championship glory this season. They are already so close and must see it to the finish line. A win in this game will steer Shelbourne 6-points clear of their closest rivals Derry City and we believe Shels will get it.
