This match is likely to be quiet for long stretches and then explode late, as both teams score most heavily in the 61-75 minute period (Galway United 27%, Shelbourne 24%), but the truly dangerous area is the home side's defense, which concedes 42% of all its goals in the 76-90 minute period, a time when Shelbourne also scores an additional 24%. Galway United's last 5 matches are 4 draws and 1 win (0-0, 1-1, 0-0, 1-1, 2-1), while Shelbourne have 4 losses and 1 draw (1-2, 0-1, 1-3, 1-2, 2-2). The first thing to watch after kickoff is the away team's counter-attacks, because if Shelbourne let the game reach the final 15 minutes with the score still close, the chance of Galway United conceding from their own mistakes rises significantly.
