Cork City vs UCD Prediction, Free Betting Tips & Odds

Date: 3rd March 2023
Kick-Off: 19:45 UK, 20:45 CET
Venue: Turners Cross

Cork City will face UCD in another match from the third round in the Premier Division of Ireland.

Cork City vs UCD Predictions and Top Betting Tips

Cork City vs UCD has been a curious rivalry over the years and with the bad start of both teams, we expect a massive game. Here are our predictions.

Total Goals Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals

UCD had some impressive scorelines in the opening games but those were against top teams that score a lot too. Cork City definitely have issues in attack and it showed in the first two rounds. We do not think that this game will have a big result. Moreover, four of the last five matches between the two teams ended with less than 2.5 goals too.

Match Result Prediction: Draw

The two teams are fairly similar in strength right now and we think that the draw is the most possible outcome of this fixture. Cork City will try to win it but UCD definitely improved their away performances in the final months of the previous season and we expect some solid performances now.

Correct Score Prediction: 1:1 Draw

Any outcome with less than 3 goals is possible here but we envision a draw. Based on the predicted Cork City vs UCD line ups, we see the teams as absolutely equal and we think that the 1:1 is highly possible here.

Cork City vs UCD: Form, Recent Games, and News

Cork City Preview

Cork City took some time to return to the elite but they finally did it after a massive season in the Irish Division 1 last year. The team won the 2nd tier with a big difference at the top. They scored a lot of goals but their best position was the defense. They conceded only 22 goals in 32 games, the least out of the entire league by a lot. Right now, after two rounds, it seems like they are not as strong in the elite.

UCD Preview

We definitely believed that UCD will get relegated last season after a complicated campaign. But they had their good moments in the end and finished second-to-last, which put them in a relegation match against the 2nd in Division 1. They won it and we will be watching them in the elite once again. Anything better will be an improvement after last season.
