LiontipsSligo Rovers - Shelbourne: Irish Championship match betting tip and bets (August 2, 2025) from UPU
Command Analysis
Before the start of the season, Sligo Rovers were among the potential candidates for relegation, having a very modest selection of players even by local standards. While John Russell's team is in ninth place in the table with 26 points and 11 points away from the direct relegation zone, the saving eighth place is three points away – this handicap can be won back today.
Shelbourne came up to the start of the season as a clear contender for a place in the top three and the selection of players obliged him to set himself such tasks, but so far there is not enough stability. With 35 points, Joey O'Brien's team is fifth in the table and six points behind third-placed Derry City. Having beaten Cork City 3-1 in the last round, Shelbourne broke a three-match unbeaten streak.

1.95Tip and bets
Shelbourne played against Karabakh in the Champions League qualifiers a few days ago, and in a few days he will have a match against Rijeka in the Europa League qualifiers, so the rotation obviously cannot be avoided. Sligo Rovers are in great shape and will certainly try to take advantage of the situation, but at the same time, Shelbourne needs points like air, and an exchange of goals is almost inevitable.
We believe that there will be goals in the match. The betting tip is that both will score. This bet is offered for 1.85
