Prediction
Our thinking is that Athlone will need to put in a solid display to put one past this Kerry side who will likely get a goal themselves and run out victorious.
We’re therefore anticipating a very competitive encounter with a 1-0 win for Kerry when the referee blows for full-time.
A close call.
