Both Teams To Score

Reason for tip

Both teams have scored in 88% of Cork’s game and this looks likely to increase further, when they face a Shelbourne side who are the better side, but have struggled to win games away from home in recent weeks.

Draw 1-1

Reason for tip

The reverse fixture finished 1-1, and we are backing this to finish with the same outcome here, with Cork playing much better at home than away, and can stop their run of four straight loses.

Both Teams to Score Likely in Cork-Shelbourne Showdown

Cork host Shelbourne at Turner’s Cross in the Ireland Premier Division. Cork have struggled this season, sitting second from bottom with just twelve points. There’s been a clear contrast between their home and away form, with ten of their twelve points coming on home soil.

Goals have been frequent in Cork’s matches, with 88% ending with both teams scoring. That pattern is even more pronounced at home, where both teams have scored in seven of their eight games at Turner’s Cross.

Shelbourne are three places above Cork and have collected 14 points more. Their away form is mixed, with two wins, four draws, and two losses. Half of those away matches have seen both teams score.

The sides have already met once this season, playing out a lively 1-1 draw. There were plenty of chances for both teams, though Shelbourne had the better opportunities, finishing with an xG of 1.32 compared to Cork City’s 0.64.

Both teams should find the net again here. Despite Cork’s poor form, they rarely fail to score—evidenced by their recent 1-1 draw against league leaders Shamrock Rovers.

Shelbourne will aim to capitalise on Cork’s struggles, but with their away form looking also poor, they may come up short. A bet on 1-1 could be worth a god
