Over their prior 6 games, Billy Dennehy's Kerry have hit the back of the net a total of 5 times - an average number of goals scored per match of 0.83.

Athlone
DDDLLL 📉
Since being beaten in their last game against UCD in First Division action, Athlone and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.

Head to head
Looking over their prior head-to-head clashes dating back to 13/06/2025 shows us that Kerry have won 2 of these and Athlone 1, with the number of drawn games standing at 3.
A total of 12 goals were shared by the two clubs during those clashes, with 8 for Kerry and 4 belonging to The Town. That’s an average goals per game figure of 2.
The last league encounter featuring these clubs was First Division match day 13 on 01/05/2026 and the score finished Athlone 0-0 Kerry.
💡
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.
