We feel that Bray Wanderers have it within them to be able to create a good number of chances & successful shots on target.
However, UCD could well struggle to make a breakthrough but we do think it’s quite likely that they will be managing to get on the scoresheet as well here.
Accordingly, we see a 3-1 winning score for Bray Wanderers at the end of the match.
