Irish Derby: Shamrock-Bohemians

[EaglesPhan36]

The most famous in Ireland. Usually a tight cagey affair with little scoring.


Bohemians-Shamrock Under 2 [-125]
Bohemians home matches have only gone over 2 in one of the last 14 in all competitions. All eleven in the Irish Premier League have stayed at two or less and they have four straight clean sheets. Shamrock Rovers likewise have found goals difficult on the road. Only one of their last 14 on the road have hit for more than two. In league play, only two of 12 and they have failed to score in four of their last six roadies. They have only given up more than one goal in one road match in league play. Eight of the last ten meetings have seen two goals or less. At Bohemians, four straight have finished at two or less.

This is almost a lock.

Might even sprinkle a little on the 0-0.

Thanks. Guess it's about time for me to start my own thread again here and hope the good vibes continue. Feel like I am cluttering up the forum with multiple posts ...

Anyone playing the repeat fixture today?

Numbers not quite as strong playing @ Shamrock for the under, but the series still says yes. Not sure if I want to jump in on this again or not.

I'm playing Shamrocks -1 at +101.

Wanted to play the under as well but no value at all on 5 dimes.

HOLY shit for a derby the odds on Bohemians are staggering...EVERYONE is on Shamrock , give me +580 on the dog and + money on the cap as well!! when two teams hate each other and a testy match is expected!! And Bo is in great form as well...

[EaglesPhan36]

Books definitely favoring the under. One book I am at is now only offering the split 2.5/2 line after the 2.5 under was just -114 this morning. I'm actually considering Over 2/2.5. Bohemians +1 seems a little trappy maybe? Given their poor record @ Shamrock recently and Shamrock rarely dropping points at home ... seems like +1 maybe would push most likely.

It's hard to look past the history of unders in this one even though Shamrock have been lighting it up lately ... dunno, probably should just pass.

Any team losing players to National Team?, looks like the national team game is until the 11th.

Rovers will be without Dean Kelly [not a starter I don't believe] and two central defenders, only one though is a starter. Bohs may be without a starting midfielder, but could get their top goal scorer back - Chris Fagan. He missed the last match and most of the one before it with a knee problem.

I'm going to go ahead and side with the historical side and what has transpired in the season meetings.

UNDER 2.5

I am sorry to sound like such a square guys but I need a little help here. I placed a wager on The Seattle/Chicago match over(2,2.5). The match ended 2-0. I was under the impression that that would be a push or a half push or something hence the Extra juice I payed(-135) to get the (2,2.5) Don't mean to clog your thread E.P. I just know if anyone will know, it'll be you guys. Thank You in advance.

[EaglesPhan36]

Yes. You pushed on the total of two, so you get half your original bet back. The other half is a loss on the "over" 2.5.

Thank You for the response E.P. I thought that there was something wrong with this. Tailing your pick as well.
Thanks again.
My book took care of that Thank You.....

Do start a season thread. I always enjoy reading your analysis. Good luck bro.

Under hits again! 1-1 final.
