Betting suggestion:

This will be a very hard and balanced match. Despite coming after a defeat, Waterford is not a bad team and in this match, they must dominate on some occasions. However, the big problem is lack of consistency during the ninety minutes, allowing the opponent several chances for goals. In this way, it’s very interesting to risk a match with goals for both sides.

Preview
Waterford United and St. Patrick's Ath. meet at Waterford Regional Sports Centre, in a match for the 3rd round of the Premier Division.

(4‑1) Waterford United. Both teams register significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth atention.

Analysis Waterford

Currently in the 6th position of the league, the home team has conquered 3 points so far. In the 1st round, they won at home against Derry City by (2‑1). In the following round, the final score was a (2‑0) loss in an away match against Cork City. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 6 draws and 4 losses in away matches, with 23 goals scored and 15 conceded; against 11 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss at their stadium, with 28 goals scored and 11 conceded. In the last 10 home matches Waterford United has won 7, tied 2 and lost 1. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. In their home matches there is a tendency for goals, since 26 of the last 36 matches have ended with Over 2,5 goals.

Waterford comes for this match after a defeat at Cork's ground, by 2-0, adding to their first defeat in this Irish championship. Despite playing at home, the coach Alan Reynolds shouldn’t make any major changes compared to the previous eleven, with Aborah being responsible for organizing the offensive process. The Holohan 8 jersey is one of Waterford's top scorers with 1 signed goal. Without major absences, the home team’s coach should act at maximum strength.

Confirmed Lineup: Lawrence Vigouroux, Kenny Browne, David Webster, Garry Comerford, Paul Keegan, Gavan Holohan, Stanley Aborah, Rory Feely, Bastien Hery, Ismahil Akinade, Courtney Duffus.
Coach: Ian Morris.

Analysis St Pat's

The away team is currently in the 4th position of the league, with 3 points won. In their debut they lost in a home match against Cork City, by (2‑3). In the second round, they won in an away match against Bray Wanderers, by (1‑2). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 6 draws and 5 losses in away matches, with 16 goals scored and 23 conceded; against 8 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses at their stadium, with 29 goals scored and 19 conceded. In the last 10 away matches St. Patrick's Ath. has won 4, tied 3 and lost 3. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches.

St. Patrick's comes for this match after a win at Bray's ground by 1-2, adding in this way the first win in the Irish championship. In this away match, the coach Liam Buckley should maintain his usual tactical scheme, namely 4-3-3, with Clarke being the most offensive team’s reference. However, the main highlight of this team is midfielder Conan Byrne with 2 scored goals. For this match, the visiting team’s coach counts on all his players.

Confirmed Lineup: Barry Murphy, Ian Bermingham, Kevin Toner, Lee Desmond, Simon Madden, Owen Garvan, Conan Byrne, Graham Kelly, Ryan Brennan, Christy Fagan, Brendan Clarke.
Coach: J. Daly.
