Starting Lineups
*Lineups are usually announced 1hr before kick-off
Player to Watch: Jack Moylan
Shelbourne midfielder, Jack Moylan, top scores for the club in the Premier Division this season with 8-goals.
Moylan ended his goal drought when he scored a goal during Shelbourne's 4-0 win over UCD and followed that up with a goal against Bohemians last time out that earned his club a point.
We're backing Moylan as our player to watch in this game, a game that we have predicted will end in a draw but if the midfielder puts in another good performance, it could prove to be enough to send the visitors on their way to another 3pts.
