Football Bet of the Day: Rovers can return goals

Back Pain: Shamrock Rovers have broken through most defences this season

Tobias Gourlay hopes to get lucky with Shamrock Rovers as they visit Bohemians for the Dublin derby

Bohemians v Shamrock Rovers
Tuesday 19:45

0-1 after three minutes and everything looked rosy in Finland last night.

But that was as good as it got. Jaro shut down RoPS, banked the 1-0 and left us two goals short of where we needed to be. 

Bohemians and Shamrock Rovers might do exactly the same to us tonight, but the price on them breaking through the goals line is just a bit too big to ignore.

Earlier this season Rovers travelled across Dublin and won 3-1 at Dalymount Park. More generally, their away scoring record has been good this term: they've scored in 10/13 and twice or more in 6/13.

Bohemians have belatedly found a little bit of good home form. After failing to win any of their first 10, they're now on a winning streak of three. They've hit the back of the net twice in 4/5, but managed clean sheets in just 2/13.
