Fri 6th Feb, 19:45 BST, Eamonn Deacy Park, Galway

Drogheda United FC are away on Friday evening, as manager Kevin Doherty takes his team to visit Galway United and John Caulfield at the Eamonn Deacy Park in the Premier Division. Form, head-to-head stats, predictions and odds are all shown below. We're here to give you everything you need to place an intelligent bet. Here we've gone for under 3.5 goals, but why not take a look and see if there's another bet you prefer?


Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

There is 75% chance of Galway and Drogheda a maximum of 3 goals combined during this Premier Division match according to our predictive algorithm and, without a strong favourite in the win draw win market, we think that's where the smart money should go. Our calculations are made based on recent form, historical head-to-head (H2H) statistics and the view of the betting market, and you can back it at 1.25.
