Cork City Drogheda United betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this challenge will be the occurrence of few goals. It is true that most of the match should be played by Cork City, however, Drogheda United has been a very difficult team to debate, as they show a lot of defensive consistency. This way, it is very interesting to risk in favour of the market "Under 2.5 Goals" in this match.

In the last match, they have lost at home against Shelbourne by (0‑2), after in the previous match they have tied (2‑2) an away match against Sligo Rovers.

Cork has won 3, tied 4 and lost 3 of the last 10 home matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 5 of the last 6 matches for this competition.

In the last 14 home matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 4 of their 11 goals between minutes (0'‑15').

In this design, the three men responsible for launching panic in the opposing defence are Cian Bargary, Ethan Varian and Ruairi Keating. All players are available for this game.

Confirmed Lineup: Jimmy Corcoran, Ally Gilchrist, Joshua Honohan, Jonas Häkkinen, Barry Coffey, Aaron Bolger, Darragh Crowley, Cian Bargary, Cian Coleman, Daniel Krezic, Ruairi Keating.
