The odds and lines below are updated regularly and may differ from the prices shown in our picks, which are captured at the time of publication.

Shamrock Full-Time Odds Suggest Victory

Shamrock Rovers are the skinniest price to succeed in this League of Ireland clash, with the favourites afforded a 63% probability based on their -167 betting odds with the bookies. If you’re looking for an alternative angle, Sligo Rovers are trading at +440.

Taking Shamrock -1 on the Asian Handicap means a full payout at -100 if they beat Sligo by two or more goals. A one-goal victory would see your stake pushed which means a full refund.

If you’re anticipating that two goals or less will be netted throughout the contest, then Under 2.5 Goals is a definite runner. A different slant is having a BTTS bet and Both Teams to Score No is chalked up at -133.
