Predictions for tonight?
Could see Shels getting a draw, but Rovers could be a familiar tale of silly errors contributing to a 3-0 defeat or so.
Shels need to learn how to score. Maybe they will nick it 1-0.
Rovers will be doing well to keep the score down. 3-0 to AEK.
If we include silly errors, I'd expect it to be a lot worse than 3-0.
Rovers are on a bad run. Bradley doesn't install confidence in his players for European games. He'll be taking the Cup Final more seriously than Europe. It doesn't look great. I'd say if they get a pasting, Cork might have a chance in the Cup Final. Also they'll be happy that Rovers will have a long journey back after a midweek game. All good for the Leesiders!
Surprised that bradley has that lineup out - playing Lopes, Grace, Cleary, Watts, McGinty and Burke. I thought that there might be more rested for the cup this weekend..
Shels to win by one goal. Rovers to lose by two.
And Rovers take the lead, proving that predicting football is a fool's game!
Burke from the spot
Soft enough penalty but Rovers won’t mind …
Considering Aberdeen got whipped 6-0, that's brilliant from Rovers. Suspect they won't hold on, but really hoping they can.
This is why I don’t gamble anymore.Quote:

Livescore showing 20 shots to 1, 80% possession to 20%, and 8 corners to 0. Rovers up to four yellows too. But only stat that matters is that they're still 1-0 up
Harsh penalty that
Some performance from Rovers especially when the laser was shown in Graham Burkes eyes as he was takin the peno.Quote:

Probably hard to begrudge AEK the point in fairness. 30-1 the final shot count; I presume McGinty can be v thanked in large partQuote:

That is a fantastic point and they have a chance now to get into the Playoff Round.
I see Celje beat Legia 2-1. They are a seriously good side.
yeah he was consistent for the awarding of the Shamrock Rovers peno too also!Quote:

Good man Danny , stopping the win, clever play.
Shels can win this game.
Edit: Well, there is a red...
What did I tell you about predicting football matches Kiki... :p
Super result by Rovers to be fair, that had all the hallmarks of a Greek tragedy, I think Aberdeen got hammered there earlier in the campaign or in a qualifying game.
6-0 in the last match
The guy who scored the penalty to equalise was signed by Real Madrid for €60m in 2019
Shels campaign going from bad to worse. Missed chances, a sending off and sloppy goals conceded. You get punished at this level playing like this.
Hearing that we are looking at a full house for nest week against Shaktar, a couple of weeks with no football and everyone is back enthusiastic again :)
Beating Besitkas home and away and drawing home and away with Panathanikos is a pretty impressive record this season and they are top of thier League , will be a tough match, on the other hand they only beat Briedablik 2 nil and Aberdeen 3 to 2 (in Aberdeen) so not impossible you would hope.
How is the away allocation looking for that match, is it only for those fans actually travelling to the game? Presumably a lot of Ukrainians in Ireland would be very interested in attending, which will probably have them in the home sections.
Looking at the ticket availability map id say 1t00 shaktar fans....has to be a lot of locals in thatQuote:
