Over 1.5 goals at UC Dublin vs Sligo Rovers 4/11 for Friday’s Irish Premier Division matchup

Competition: Irish Premier Divison

Market: Over 1.5 goals

Odds: 4/11 @ 888sport

Hoping to make it back-to-back Premier Division victories on Friday night, Sligo Rovers will make the trip to UC Dublin smelling a real chance.

Starting with the hosts, last seen putting in another toothless display, UC Dublin already find themselves tipped as a landslide pick to be hit with an immediate relegation. In their 17 Premier Division matchups so far this season, they have recorded just a single win, five draws and 11 defeats, scoring 10 and conceding 37 in return. Along with managing to muster just a points tally of eight and opening this weekend’s fixtures sat 11 points adrift of safety, it should also be noted that they hold the worst defensive record in the division. As for their recent run of results, last seen getting hit with a 2-0 loss away at Shelbourne, UCD have suffered back-to-back Premier Division contests. Likewise, they have also seen 13 of their last 14 fixtures finish with over 1.5 goals.

As for the visitors, managing to make a much-needed return to winning ways last time out, Sligo Rovers will be desperate to keep up that momentum here. In their 18 Premier Division matchups this season, they have recorded six wins, six draws and six defeats, scoring 24 and conceding 22 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 24, they open this weekend’s fixtures sat fifth in the standings and seven points adrift of breaking into the European places. However, as for their recent run of results, last seen picking up a 2-1 victory against Derry City on home soil, that is Sligo’s only victory from their previous six outings. However, it should be noted, with Friday’s guests seeing each of their last seven Premier Division fixtures finish with over 1.5 goals, we’re backing a similar outcome here.
