Waterford, Recent FormThe Waterford squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 2-1 away defeat against Galway United, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. Their share of possession in that meeting was 50%, while racking up 9 shots along the way, 3 of which were on target, in contrast to Galway United, who had 13 shots on goal with 7 on target.
It seems pretty certain that Keith Long will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 10 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 8 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
Having drawn 3 of their last 6 home games they have at least put some points on the board, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
St. Patrick's Athletic, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 2-1 away defeat by Derry City will have left the St. Patrick's Athletic squad feeling a little deflated. In that game they had 48% possession and managed 8 attempts on goal, with 1 on target, compared to Derry City who had 7 attempts and 4 on target.
Having conceded 8 goals and scored just 3 in their last 6 games, they have been very fortunate to pick up 6 points. In their last 6 away games, they have scored in 5 and kept a clean sheet in 3.
Losing 4 of their last 6 outings will not be looked on kindly by their manager; however, they did salvage some valuable points by winning the other 2 games.
It was a 0-0 draw last time these two met, so not one to look back on fondly, with both sides taking away just a single point for their troubles.
When playing away from home in the league, St. Patrick's Athletic have failed to win any of their last 3 meetings with Waterford, with the last 2 of those games ending in a draw.
St. Patrick's Athletic 2 - 3 WaterfordWith no real injury worries, Waterford manager Keith Long will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
There is only really one injury concern for the St. Patrick's Athletic manager Jon Daly ahead of this clash, with Tom Grivosti (Cruciate ligament) missing out, which gives Daly a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
