Waterford are on a superb run at the moment, and especially so at home. Meanwhile, Dundalk are going through a worrying stretch, and are conceding goals in huge numbers as well. Likely, expect a win for the former this weekend at the Regional Sports Centre.
Waterford had a slow start to their campaign, but they have greatly improved their form lately. Not only are they consistently finding the back of the net, but they are also doling out wins in almost every game lately.

For the reasons, expect a win for Waterford this Friday.
