Wie kommen beide Teams ins Spiel?
Waterford’s season has been marked by attacking flashes offset by defensive lapses. They’ve averaged around 1.1 goals per game but conceded at a rate of 1.4 goals on average. Their clean sheet frequency sits near 20%, highlighting vulnerabilities at the back—especially when under sustained pressure.
Shelbourne arrive in stronger form, boasting an average of 1,8 erzielte Tore per fixture while shipping just 0,9 Ziele. Their defence has kept clean sheets close to 45% of the time, and they’ve shown the ability to control matches both on the break and in possession. Recent goal splits suggest they’re comfortable with either low-scoring encounters or more open affairs.
Unsere Prognose
Given both sides’ tendencies, we’re expecting a tight, low-scoring affair. Waterford will press early, but Shelbourne’s defensive solidity may blunt the home side’s momentum. An evenly matched first half could give way to a decisive moment after the break, likely from a set-piece or counter.
We foresee either a 1:1 Unentschieden oder eine schmale 0-1 victory for Shelbourne. Betting the unter 2,5 Tore market or backing a slim away success could offer the most value.
