IRISH PREMIER LEAGUE .........

BOHEMIANS - SLIGO ROVERS

These are basic notes from today's email, sent circa 9am, but I have had to change the content a little.

The Irish clubs have a two week break from league action after this weekend and leaders Bohemians will want to maintain their advantage at the top of the table and fully enjoy their short "vacation". They bounced back from a defeat to St Patrick's to put eight goals past lowly Mayfield United in the cup last weekend, that would have done wonders for their confidence and aside from the suspended Graham Carey they have a fully fit squad available tonight.

Sligo have had a very different preparation, they have had two titanic cup ties with Cork City in the last week, including extra time on Tuesday night, just three days ago. If that was not bad enough they are without the suspended Ryan and Noctor, plus several other on the injured list. They have lost 3-0 on their last two visits here and not scored in five meetings with Bohs. Only the bottom two teams in the Premier have scored fewer goals than Sligo and it is hard to see them raising their game again, a third time in six days. I am convinced that a confident, well rested Bohemians will run away with this one and make them a strong bet.

7 points Bohemians -1.25 1.83 asian line.

Good Luck
