Derry City Dundalk betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match is multiple goals. Derry City should dominate and create the better scoring chances, exploiting the opposition's defensive frailties to score goals. On the other hand, Dundalk come into this match in a very positive phase and will use their strong counter attack to score goals. Thus, we expect a very open game with goals at the end of the 90'.
