Waterford and Drogheda face off in the Irish Premier tonight

The goals have dried up for Drogheda and Tobias Gourlay expects them to be sunk by Waterford in the Irish Premier tonight...


Waterford v Drogheda
Thursday 19:45

In Finland yesterday, KuPS raced out to a 3-0 lead and eventually won 3-1 to give us a BTTS winner.

We've crossed the Irish Sea today to catch the Irish Premier Division game between sixth-placed Waterford (W6-D4-L6) and ninth-placed Drogheda (W3-D6-L7). We fancy the hosts can take all three points...

Drogheda are winless on the road to this point (D3-L5). They've scored just three times across those eight outings. Against the teams around Waterford in the table (5th, 7th, 8th) they've lost 3/3.

Promoted Waterford have settled back into the top flight. Keith Long's men are W2-D2-L3 on their own patch, but they have won 2/3 hosting teams currently below them in the table like Drogheda. They scored seven times across those three encounters and, on the plump side of evens, we'll take them to outgun the visitors this evening.

Now read our preview of tonight's game in Serie A!
