Bohemians vs St Joseph’s prediction

Coached by Alan Reynolds, the fan-owned Bohemians finished fourth in the 2025 League of Ireland campaign, now second behind Shamrock Rovers in 2026. Bohs haven’t been in Europe since the 2021/22 season.

They now face a St Joseph’s side that finished second in the Gibraltar Football League, behind the dominant force of Gibraltarian football Lincoln Red Imps. St Joseph’s played Cliftonville, of Northern Ireland, last season before then losing to the Shamrock Rovers.

St Joseph’s’ last six European ties have seen them face three Irish sides and two Northern Irish teams. They have beaten by the two Irish and beaten the two Northern Irish. That will give Bohs confidence, especially with their home advantage in this first-leg.

Bohemians vs St Joseph’s tip: Double chance – Bohemians to win or draw
