Derry City v Bohemians Dublin FC : Premier Division match betting preview, prediction and odds

Fri 25th Jul, 19:45 BST, Brandywell Stadium, Derry

Friday evening at the Brandywell Stadium, and it’s a Premier Division showdown between Derry City and Bohemians Dublin FC. Huseyin Eroglu and Stephen Bradley will be doing all they can to guide their side to the win. Our predictions for each betting market are based on the past 20 games each side has played (at home, away or overall) with additional weight assigned to top teams. All the stats and graphics are designed specifically for the selected market. Head-to-head statistics between the team are also given where our data allows. Odds are provided straight from from the UK's biggest bookmakers.


Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

We predict there's very little chance of a bore-draw or a sneaky 1-0 win here, and instead we're tipping over 1.5 goals. That means that Derry and Bohemians will score at least 2 between them during the standard 90 mins. It's a tip based on the recent form of the respective sides, as well as historical records when they go head-to-head. We give it a probability of 74%. The bookies have it at 1.36.
