However, one of those two wins came last time out as they recorded a 2-1 win at Waterford. The win leaves the home team fifth-place in the table, seven points off the European qualification spots.
Their recent league matches have been relatively low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in six of their last nine outings in the Premier Division.
Ollie Horgan’s team have been poor on home soil of late in the Irish top-flight, as they have failed to win in four home matches in the league, having suffered three defeats.
Their home games have been low-scoring in recent months, as seven of their last eight matches have produced under 2.5 goals.
Sligo Rovers have enjoyed a promising campaign so far in the Premier Division, as they currently sit a point clear of Shamrock Rovers at the top of the table. Liam Buckley’s team are unbeaten in six league outings, including winning their last four Premier Division matches.
The visitors have also kept four straight clean sheets in the Irish top-flight, which has contributed to there being under 2.5 goals scored in six of their last seven league matches.
Sligo’s recent away form in the Premier Division has been particularly impressive, as the visitors are unbeaten in seven league games on their travels, having recorded six wins in the process.
Like their recent league matches in general, the visitor’s recent away matches have been low-scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in four of their last five games.
Forebet predicts that Sligo Rovers will continue their recent good run of form by recording a victory in a low-scoring encounter.
