St. Patricks vs BohemiansPrediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

A quarter-final at Richmond Park, so there is no table involved: form and previous meetings do the talking. St Patrick's Athl. lost their most recent game 0-2 at home to Waterford, but before that they had strung together three wins, 2-0 at Drogheda United, 3-2 against Shamrock Rovers and 2-1 at Shelbourne, preceded by a 1-1 with Derry City. Bohemians come in on three straight and emphatic victories: 3-0 against Sligo Rovers, 5-3 against Derry City and 4-0 against Longford Town, after a 2-3 at FC Midtjylland and a 1-3 at Waterford. The five previous meetings have mostly been tight: three goalless draws, the 2-0 Bohemians took on their own ground last June and the 3-1 St Patrick's Athl. won at Richmond Park in April. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
