Prediction
We’re inclined to think that Cork City can see a lot of the ball and convert quite a few goal-scoring opportunities.
Conversely, Finn Harps could well struggle finding the net themselves, although we do think that it’s probable they’ll be scoring here as well.
Therefore, we are anticipating a pretty comfortable 1-3 winning score for Cork City at the end of the 90 minutes.
