- Competition: League of Ireland Premier Division
- Date: 26th June 2023
- Kickoff: 20:00 UK / 21: 00 CEST
- Venue: Tallaght Stadium
A big Premier Division clash takes place on Monday night when Shamrock Rovers host Derry City.
The hosts are first in the division, four points above Derry City who currently occupy second place.
Shamrock Rovers are looking to return to winning ways after picking just one point against Bohemians last time out. While it must have been very heartbreaking for the Hoops to throw away a two goal lead, they remain favorites for a win on Monday, having won each of the last three Premier Division titles.
Stephen Bradley's men will be looking to secure another title this year, but standing on their way is a Derry City side that are desperate for the title themselves after coming very close last year, finishing in second place. The visitors are the underdogs, but the Candystripes would get encouragement from the fact that they won their last visit to the Tallaght Stadium.
Shamrock Rovers vs Derry City Betting Tips: Under 2.5 goals
Only Shelbourne have conceded fewer goals than Shamrock and City in the Premier Division this season. Rovers have failed to win just one of their last four games. During this period, they kept a clean sheet three times.
Derry City have lost just two of their last nine games in this competition. Ruaidhrí Higgins’s men kept a clean sheet seven times, during this period, and a bet on ‘'Under 2.5 goals'' was a win six times.
Another reason we are expecting Monday's game to have fewer than 2.5 goals is because recent meetings between Shamrock Rovers and Derry City were very tight. In five of the last seven, a bet on ‘'under 2.5 goals'' was won.

Derry City team news
Derry City will make the trip to Tallaght without at least four players due to injuries and suspensions. Ciaron Harkin and Colm Whelan are nursing cruciate ligament injuries, while Patrick McEleney is struggling with an Achilles tendon injury.
Ronan Boyce's yellow card against Cork City last time out was his fifth yellow card of the campaign, so he would serve a one game suspension on Monday night.
