Lineups

Squad Ratings

Bohemians's highest-rated starter is D. Devoy (7.40), while Shamrock Rovers's best-rated player is R. Lopes (7.22).

Attacking Output

The starting XI of Bohemians have contributed 5 goals and 4 assists this season, led by R. Tierney (2G). Shamrock Rovers's starters account for 13 goals and 0 assists, spearheaded by G. Burke (5G). Goals reflect clinical finishing and chance creation, while assists highlight the ability to unlock defences through through-balls, crosses, and set pieces.

Defensive Solidity

Bohemians deploy 3 defenders rated 6.93 on average, against Shamrock Rovers's 5-man backline averaging 6.96. Higher defensive ratings suggest better positional awareness, fewer individual errors, and a greater likelihood of keeping clean sheets. The rating accounts for tackles won, interceptions, aerial duels, and blocks throughout the season.

Midfield Control

Bohemians field 4 midfielders averaging 7.07, versus Shamrock Rovers's 4 rated 6.85. Midfield ratings reflect passing accuracy, interceptions, key passes, and overall control of possession — the team that dominates midfield typically dictates the tempo and territory of the match.

Forward Threat

Bohemians start 3 forward(s) averaging 6.58, compared to 1 for Shamrock Rovers averaging 6.52. Forward ratings capture shot accuracy, movement off the ball, dribbling success, and involvement in build-up play — they indicate who carries the greater goal threat on the day.

Passing & Build-Up

Passing accuracy averages 79% for Bohemians and 80% for Shamrock Rovers. Higher passing accuracy generally indicates a possession-based style with patient build-up through the thirds, while lower figures may suggest a more direct, counter-attacking approach with long balls and quick transitions.

Discipline

Bohemians's starters have collected 9 yellow cards this season, compared to 9 for Shamrock Rovers. Yellow cards reflect how aggressively a team presses and tackles — a high count may indicate a physical, high-pressing style but also risks suspensions and late free-kicks in dangerous areas.

Age & Experience

The average age of Bohemians's starting XI is 24.5 (youngest: L. Kavanagh (22), oldest: D. Rooney (27)), while Shamrock Rovers average 28.9 (youngest: M. Noonan (17), oldest: A. Matthews (33)). Younger squads typically offer pace, energy, and pressing intensity, while experienced lineups bring composure, game management, and the ability to handle high-pressure moments.

Squad Depth

Bohemians's starters average 11 league appearances each, versus 11 for Shamrock Rovers. High appearance counts indicate an established, well-drilled unit that the manager trusts week in and week out. Lower figures may suggest rotation, injuries, or emerging players still earning their place in the team.
