The first-ever meeting between the two sides on Thursday is likely to see the visitors take the win.
The last five away games have seen the visiting side score eight goals while conceding just three. The squad have also recorded three clean sheets in the process which certainly indicates that they are have been quite sound in the defensive third.
The home side saw their four-match unbeaten streak at home come to an end after they lost against Shamrock Rovers in their previous fixture at home. They have not been convincing in their recent games either, and have failed to score more than one goal in each of their last five ties.
The visitors have been consistent in finding the back of the net at least once in the opening forty-five minutes of their last five games. We can certainly expect them to get off the mark before the break and quite possibly take the win at the end of the ninety minutes.
