🗞️ Team News: Waterford

Matty Smith (Knee injury) and Trae Coyle (Hamstring injury) are not available for Waterford manager John Coleman.

It’s our opinion that The Blues could make use of the 4-3-1-2 system for the game, utilising Stephen McMullan, Grant Horton, Rowan McDonald, Darragh Leahy, Ryan Burke, Sam Glenfield, James Olayinka, Kyle White, Conan Noonan, Padraig Amond and Tom Lonergan.

🗞️ Team News: Bohemian FC

We reckon that The Bohs seem most likely to make use of a 4-2-3-1 lineup, giving starts to Kacper Chorazka, Niall Morahan, Jordan Flores, Adam McDonnell, Seán Grehan, Leigh Kavanagh, Dayle Rooney, Dawson Devoy, James Clarke, Ross Tierney and Archie Meekison.

🧠 Prediction

Our assessment here is that Waterford will have their work cut out to put one past this Bohemian FC outfit who we think will gain the upper hand.

That’s why our selection here is for a good tussle with a 0-1 win for Bohemian FC after 90 minutes.

There should be little in it.
