Sligo Rovers vs Cork City Predictions and Top Betting Tips
Sligo Rovers vs Cork City is an ancient rivalry and we expect a huge match. Here are our predictions for this game.
Contents
Both Teams To Score Prediction: Yes
There is nothing else to expect from two teams that have already proven that they can score a lot of goals in the opening rounds. COrk City already had the most goal-packed game to date – a 4:4 draw with Shamrock Rovers. Moreover, four of the last five games between the two teams ended with both teams scoring goals.
Total Goals Prediction: Over 2.5 Goals
We do not think that this match will end in a 1:1 draw or anything similar. We expect one of the teams to step it up at least and score more than one goal. To date, both teams have shown that they can score multiple goals per game against weak and strong opponents identically.
Correct Score Prediction: 2:1 to Sligo Rovers
We see the home team as the one with the bigger chance. When we compare the Sligo Rovers vs Cork City line ups, the hosts have a much better team right now. And they look better at the start of the campaign.
Sligo Rovers vs Cork City: Form, Recent Games, and News
Sligo Rovers Preview
Sligo Rovers have been one of the better teams in the league over the past few years. Of course, they failed to reach Top 3 last year and were never really close but we still find them as a potential contender this season. Their form seems incredible right now and they already got points from the main contenders.
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 four rounds, they showed that they can at least compete in the elite.
