Match Preview: Bohemians v Athlone Town

The Women’s National League sees a clash between the new sides propping up the table: Bohemians and Athlone Town at Dalymount Park today (2pm).

Both and The Town touched the bottom of the table during the week after both crests being involved in late dramas causing trashing outcomes for the gangs meeting this afternoon.

 A 99th minute Pearl Slattery strike turned out a very entertaining show into a nightmare for the Gypsies against Shelbourne, as they are now on a negative run of four consecutive losses.

Athlone Town had the same fate hosting Galway; as Anna Gahey brought a late change to the show in the 86th minute and stole all three points confirming a 2-1 win for the visitors.

The battle at the tail-end is as entertaining as the one happening at the top. Cork City, Treaty United, Bohemians and Athlone Town have been switching places for the last couple of rounds in a ferocious disdain for the unwanted places. 

The ball is now on their side, and a possible win for either group means the sinking of the opponent; as there are both tied with the same eight points before the kick-off. 

It is expected an emotive spectacle, spiced up by the importance of grabbing points, where both teams will be playing out on their best favourite condition; Bohs have confirmed five points out from their eight playing inside their walls.

The Town are coming from three consecutive draws and have proved a sneaky side in away games, with six from their eight points confirmed outside their venue.

The Dubliner's single win playing outside the Dalymount Park came precisely at Athlone Town, with Erica Burke’s brace and Chloe Darby’s goal confirming a 3-2 victory; Katelyn Keogh and Roisin Molloy put their name on the score sheet for the home side.
