They use the Saros cycle. A repeating pattern that tells you when the next eclipse will happen. Earth doesn't need to be round for that and no round earth maths are used.

Saros Cycle

How would you go about predicting the start of a Saros series?
I don't need to. The Babylonians have already done it for me.

It is a repeating pattern. If I get an eclipse over London ... I know in 6585.3211 days I'm going to get a near identical one. Job done.

Do you refer to lunar eclipse or solar eclipse?

I do not understand why people can predict when lunar eclipse or solar eclipse happen. What method do they use to predict?
