Galway United Drogheda United betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match is a Galway victory. Until very recently, the home team was going through a difficult period, but in their last two home games they responded positively and could be highly motivated by these consecutive wins. On the other hand, Drogheda may be less motivated, having failed to win any of their last four away matches.
