We’re Not Expecting the Goal Tally to Exceed Two

For those that agree with our view that this will be low-scoring, take the 1.70 when it comes to Under 2.5 on the Total Goals market. We don’t think Sligo and Galway will serve up a goalfest.

Last H2H Encounter Ended in a 2-2 Draw

Sligo Rovers have suffered defeat in their last three games. Most recently, a 4-2 scoreline occurred on the road at Dalymount Park against Bohemians. John Russell's men had 52% of possession and four shots on target, with Francely Lomboto and Owen Elding scoring one goal apiece.

Galway United were beaten 1-0 in their previous game, being turned over at home to Shamrock Rovers at Eamonn Deacy Park. The Tribesmen recorded 43% possession and had two shots on goal.

Sligo are unbeaten when it comes to the past four meetings against Galway, with the last encounter ending in a 2-2 draw at Eamonn Deacy Park. The past 4 H2H matches have involved three draws and one Sligo win.

Corners Prediction

Galway Under 4.5 Corners 1.92 bet365 logo

The 4.5 corners line has not been covered by Galway in their past five games, with the corner count against Sligo going under 4.5 in their last three matches. There’s everything to like about the Galway Team Corners line which looks too big and we’d expect them to go under at 1.92.
