Waterford United vs Bohemians Predictions

Boh to take the points

Bohemians are the best bet to win away at Waterford on Friday. The hosts have struggled at the back this season, and Bohemians can take advantage.

They are six places above Waterford in the table, with ten points separating the teams. Waterford are eighth with seven wins and ten defeats, while Bohemians are second with 11 wins and eight losses.

Bohemians’ 2-0 win over Cork last Friday kept up their recent winning trend, while Waterford’s attacking struggles have been evident this season, with just nine goals in nine home games – an average of one goal per game.

Waterford have been in patchy form recently, with two wins, two draws and two defeats in their last six Premier Division games. They even lost 1-0 to ninth-placed Sligo, which doesn’t inspire confidence.

They have struggled to keep things tight at the back, failing to keep a clean sheet in 17 of their last 20 Premier Division home games. They have shipped 17 goals at home this season – an average of 1.89 per game from nine matches.

Bohemians are in form, with eight victories in their last ten league games, and they are going for a third successive win. Waterford, on the other hand, have not won in four Premier Division games.

Bohemians to win away 2-0 looks a decent correct-score bet. They have played five Premier Division games in a row with fewer than three goals, and Waterford have suffered two 2-0 losses in the league this season.
