MATCH BETTING ODDS

Treaty is 5/6, Finn Harps are 3/1, while the draw is 12/5.

Preview

Treaty were defeated 0-3 last Friday Night against league leaders Galway which ended their four-game winning streak. However, losing to Galway will not be the result that defines their season and following an up-turn in form on the whole in recent weeks they are currently sixth on the table and know a victory could bring them up as high as fourth on the table and only one-behind Bray in third place.

Finn Harps have lost their last four games following their minor renaissance in form. The side remains a team in transition and were humbled 0-4 by Waterford last weekend. Finn Harps are currently second from bottom in 9th, only nine points clear of Kerry now in tenth but they know a win could bring them up to seventh which shows just how tight the league is.

Athlone comes into the match after a poor string of results with two defeats and a draw in their last three matches ending their two-game winning run, they have struggled with consistency albeit still a strong season compared with last year.

As rumoured last week Gordon Brett has stepped down as Athlone manager despite it not being announced officially by the media. Nevertheless, a victory on Friday could bring them as high as third on the table.

Prediction

Athlone 1-3 Galway United

Kerry v Wexford

When? 7.45 pm, Friday, May 26th

Where? Mounthawk  Park, Tralee

How To Watch? LOITV.ie

MATCH BETTING ODDS

Kerry are 11/2, Wexford are 2/5 and the draw is 16/5.

Preview

Kerry were defeated 0-2 by Bray last Friday Night having won in the previous week with their dramatic 2-3 victory against Athlone.

Kerry may have only five points from their opening fifteen matches in their maiden League of Ireland season but they are no pushovers and have been knocking on the door of victories throughout the season and are consistently competitive every week.

A win on Friday could put them only six points behind Finn Harps in second from bottom.

Wexford comes into this in a poor run of form with three defeats, one draw and one victory in their last five matches which will they will be disappointed with as many had tipped them to be surprise play-off contenders at the start of the season.

Their 0-3 defeat against Longford last Friday means the club are currently eighth on the table on fifteen points, a win for them could bring them up to seventh, leapfrogging Longford in the process.

Prediction

Kerry 1-0 Wexford

Kerry win again!

Bray v Cobh Ramblers

When? 7.45 pm, Friday, May 26th

Where? Carlisle Grounds, Bray

How To Watch? LOITV.ie

MATCH BETTING ODDS

Bray are 5/6, Cobh can be gotten at 14/5 while the draw is 5/2.

Preview

Bray have seven points in their last three matches with their most recent game being a 0-2 victory against Kerry. Bray are currently “best of the rest” in the First Division after Galway United and Waterford with them in third place on 23-points with 15 matches played.

Bray know a draw against Cobh will keep them above them on the table while a win would certainly keep them in third place.

Cobh comes into this following their 2-2 draw against Athlone which means they have two wins, two draws and one defeat in their last five matches. Cobh are without a victory in their last three matches, but nevertheless are having an excellent season under Shane Keegan and a victory on Friday could see them climb back to third on the table.

Where? Bishopsgate, Longford

How To Watch? LOITV.ie

MATCH BETTING ODDS

Longford are 9/1, Waterford are 1/4 while the draw is 9/2.

Preview

Longford to their credit have been very good in recent weeks with their 0-3 victory against Wexford on Friday making it three wins, one draw and one defeat in their last five league games putting their early season poor form behind them. A victory on Saturday (albeit a shock one) could bring them up to fifth on the table and well in the playoff mix again.

Waterford comes into this with two wins in a row with their most recent victory being a 0-4 comprehensive victory against Finn Harps making it nine goals in their last two games after beating Cobh Ramblers 5-0 in their game previous. Another win could bring them up to twelve clear of Cobh and possibly only seven points off Galway.
