Our prediction for this Ireland Premier Division match:
Following a 1-1 draw with Dundalk, St Patricks will look to return to winning ways in the Premier Division when they face UC Dublin on Friday evening. The Saints are eyeing their fifth consecutive win at home ground and we are positive that they will adopt an attack-minded approach against UCD. Harry Brockbank has joined Tom Grivosti and Joe Redmond in the recovery room, while Jay McGrath should be recalled to the starting XI.
The visitors, on the other hand, desperately needed a win against Sligo Rovers and they managed to get one. UCD, though, have lost ten of their eleven away games this season, which is probably the main reason why we are going to bet on St Patricks. In their last meeting at the venue the Saints outplayed the Students 3-0. Sam Todd is a major doubt, while Mark Dignam has yet to overcome a muscle injury, speaking of the away side.
