How Sligo Rovers's matches tend to go

Their games land close to the Premier Division norm for goals — 47% over 2.5 against a division average of 52%. That ranks them 9th of 10 for goals in their matches, 10th for scoring (0.76 a game) and 1st for goals conceded (1.76). They've kept 6 clean sheets and failed to score 16 times in 34 games — the goals dry up more often than the back line holds.

Across 34 matches with half-time data, 56% of the goals in their games have come after the break (38 before, 48 after). Sligo Rovers themselves have scored 14 in first halves and 12 in second.
