Shamrock Rovers vs Molde – With only four games remaining, Shamrock Rovers are still in the driver’s seat for a 20th Irish title after a thrilling comeback victory against Shelbourne last time out. On the European front, though, things haven’t been as good, and the Dublin team is in danger of being eliminated early here due to its winless group stage record in the UEFA Europa Conference League (UECL).
The Shamrock Rovers have already had a remarkable European trip, even if they are kicked out of the group. It will be Shamrock’s 12th European match of the year against the newly crowned champions of Norway, Molde, and their unbeaten home record over those five games (W4, D1) implies that the Dublin team can improve on their club-record one point in a UEFA group stage.
Shamrock Rovers vs Molde – Betting Analysis
Molde, who only achieved their first victory at the third attempt in the reversal, has some work to do if they want to win this UECL group (W1, D1, L1). Molde’s lead at the top of the standings is now a stunning 15 points, but a 5-0 victory over Ham-Kam in the Norwegian Eliteserien last time out ensured that it would remain that way with just one more point!
In each of their four European road trips this season, Molde has alternated between victories and defeats (W2, L2), and they will look to continue that trend today after losing their most recent trip to Djurgrdens to a goal in the 91st minute. Despite the fact that Molde’s two road victories this season have quadrupled their number of European away victories, they are still in the red on all of their continental travels (W4, D2, L7).
Rory Gaffney, who scored a beautiful volley in the dying minutes to beat Shelbourne, said, “The league is our bread and butter, Europe is fantastic but it’s just a bonus at the end of the day,” which would imply he won’t be as motivated in this matchup. Ola Brynhildsen of Molde will attempt to surpass him. In his last five club games, he has only failed to score once, and three of those goals have come in the first half of games.
