Both teams to score at Galway vs UC Dublin 8/11 for Friday’s FAI Cup showdown
Competition: FAI Cup
Market: Both teams to score
Odds: 8/11 @ 888sport
Two sides who will be looking to extend on their FAI Cup adventure on Friday night, Galway will host Premier Division outfit UC Dublin.
Starting with the hosts, while Galway might be cruising their way towards a play-off spot this year, they are enduring a recent wobble. In their 26 First Division matchups so far this season, they have recorded 16 wins, five draws and five defeats, scoring 48 and conceding 21 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 53, they currently find themselves sat second in the standings and seven points adrift of league leaders Cork City. As for their recent run of results, now suffering back-to-back 2-1 losses against Bray and Waterford, Galway have failed to win any of their previous three First Division matchups. However, it should be highlighted, along with each of their last three domestic contests, Friday’s hosts have seen four of their last five outings finish with both teams finding the net.
As for the visitors, after watching their impressive unbeaten run come to an abrupt end last time out, UC Dublin will be hoping for an immediate response here. In their 27 Premier Division matchups so far this season, they have recorded just three wins, seven draws and 17 defeats, scoring 19 and conceding 53 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 16, they currently find themselves sat rock-bottom of the table and 15 points adrift of finding a route out of the relegation zone. However, as for their recent run of results, last seen getting hit with a 2-1 loss at home against St. Patrick’s, that is the first defeat that UC Dublin have suffered from their last four domestic matchups. Likewise, with each of their last three fixtures seeing both teams finding the net, we’re backing a similar outcome here.
