It's fair to say St. Patrick's Athletic will have been relatively pleased with a point from their last encounter with Bohemian FC, a match that ended in a 2-2 draw.  In that game they had 40% possession and managed 10 attempts on goal, with 2 on target, compared to Bohemian FC who had 12 attempts and 5 on target.  

They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 6 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 8 and seen valuable points lost.  They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.  

Having drawn 2 of their last 6 games they have at least put some points on the table, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.

Galway United have set themselves up nicely for this match by securing a 2-0 home win against Dundalk in their previous league match.  In that game they recorded 37 % of the possession, with 17 attempts on goal, 3 on target. Their opponents found the target on 0 of their 4 shots on goal.  

Manager John Caulfield will be pleased with his team's performances recently, having only conceded 3 in their last 6 games, while still managing to score a respectable 7 goals.  They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games, and they've kept a clean sheet in 4 of their last 6 games overall.  

Their strong run of form, both away and at home now gives them an unbeaten streak of 9 games in a row.  

Stephen Walsh will be keen to get his name on the scoresheet against St. Patrick's Athletic in this match, having already scored 3 goals in his last 6 away games for Galway United.
