Sligo Rovers Waterford betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this challenge will be for Sligo to not win. In addition to the home club reaching this round after a heavy defeat, they still receive an “enemy” who has a superior squad. Thus, it will not be surprising that Waterford will put their favoritism on the pitch and earn at least one point in this round.

Sligo comes unmotivated for this round after an away defeat, by 3-0, against Cork. The main offensive reference of the home club is the Irishman Ronan Coughlan, and his best qualities are the demarcation and the consequent finishing. It is expected that the home team will play again in a 4-3-3 tactical system, where the player responsible for leading and defining Sligo's offensive plays in the best way is the young midfielder Darragh Noone. The boss of the farthest zone is the Irish defender, Callan-McFadden. Coach Liam Buckley should have all players available for this round.

Coach: L. Buckley.
