✍️ Match Preview

Full Analysis

Dalymount Park plays host to Bohemians versus Shamrock Rovers in Premier Division, Regular Season - 12. Kick-off: Friday 22 April 2022 at 19:45 UTC.

Form & Momentum

Bohemians have collected 1.40 PPG across 10 Premier Division outings this season: 3W 5D 2L. Last five: D D W W D. Offensively they are averaging 1.70 goals per game, with 1.30 conceded. Both teams have scored in 100% of their matches — an extremely high rate that makes BTTS Yes a well-supported standalone angle from their form alone.

At home at Dalymount Park, Bohemians have gone 5W 3D 2L this season (10 games, 1.80 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.70 goals scored and 1.30 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 80% of their home games — an outstanding BTTS rate that is a key data point for this fixture.

Shamrock Rovers (all games): 7W 1D 2L across 10 Premier Division outings this term — 2.20 points per game. Last five: W W W L W. They are scoring at 1.60 per game and conceding 0.80. Defensively, 0.80 goals conceded per game is elite-level — a side this difficult to score against is a real threat to Over 2.5 and BTTS Yes. 4 clean sheets in 10 outings (40%) underlines their defensive solidity.

Shamrock Rovers away from home this season: 6W 0D 4L from 10 away games — 1.80 PPG on the road. Away from home they average 1.30 goals scored and 1.00 conceded per game. 4 clean sheets from 10 away games (40%) shows they are capable of shutting up shop on the road.

The travelling side arrive in better shape. Shamrock Rovers are 0.80 PPG clear of Bohemians in recent Premier Division fixtures (2.20 vs 1.40). Backing the visitors outright or on Draw No Bet are both valid approaches where the price allows.

Trading

Bohemians half-time and goal-timing data (36 games, 18 at home): they score before half-time in 72% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 100% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 67% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 67% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 72% of games (home games).

Shamrock Rovers half-time and goal-timing data (36 games, 18 at away): they score before half-time in 50% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 100% of the time; BTTS occurs in 44% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 39% of games (away games).

From a combined perspective, both sides have high BTTS rates — Bohemians 67% and Shamrock Rovers 56% — which reinforces the BTTS Yes angle from in-play data. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Bohemians 58% | Shamrock Rovers 44%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Bohemians 1.15 xG and Shamrock Rovers 1.38 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Bohemians attack 1.204 / defence 1.123 | Shamrock Rovers attack 1.022 / defence 0.866. League average goals — home 1.105 / away 1.203. Data: 47 Bohemians games / 47 Shamrock Rovers games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Bohemians 30% | Draw 29% | Shamrock Rovers 41%. Fair-value odds: Bohemians 3.33 | Draw 3.45 | Shamrock Rovers 2.44. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome exceeds 45%. The draw at 29% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 46% | BTTS probability 52% | Total xG 2.53. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 46%/54% — the total xG of 2.53 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 52% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Verdict

The Poisson model's primary lean is Shamrock Rovers at 41% — marginal model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw probability of 29% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Shamrock Rovers if the outright odds are short. The opposing side holds a 30% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

The Poisson model projects 2.53 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 46% — Poisson-only — limited corroboration confidence.

Poisson assigns a 52% probability to BTTS Yes based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate: Bohemians 80% | Shamrock Rovers 40% BTTS from recent games.

The outsider holds a 30% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should not be treated as one. Proportionate stakes are appropriate given the genuine contest the data projects.

Where the Numbers Come From

The model rates Bohemians's attack at 1.20x the league average against Shamrock Rovers's defence at 0.87x — combine the two and it projects 1.15 expected goals for the hosts. Flip it around — Shamrock Rovers's attack (1.02x) against Bohemians's defence (1.12x) — and the away total comes out at 1.38.

These ratings are built from 47/47 games of current-season data — a full enough sample to trust.
