Result: Saints 0 - Rovers 1
Jack Byrne's early goal was enough for champions Shamrock Rovers at Inchicore to end St Patrick's Athletic unbeaten home record and in the process depose them at the top of the Premier Division table.
Ominously for the pretenders, bang in form Rovers thus stretch their unbeaten run to eight games. A second successive loss in five days for Stephen Kenny's Inchicore side since going top just a week ago sees them slip two points off in second place.
Chief among four changes from their defeat in Dundalk on Monday, St Patrick's gave a first start of the season to club talisman Chris Forrester while Jamie Lennon also returned to their midfield after a five-week injury lay-off.
