UCD prepare for this game following on from a 1-1 First Division drawn game versus Dundalk.
It’s been a rare occasion in recent games that UCD have managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes. The facts show that UCD have been scored against in 5 of their previous 6 matches, shipping 8 goals in the process.
Cobh Ramblers
WWLWWD
In their last game, Cobh Ramblers drew 1-1 in the First Division tie with Longford Town.
Cobh Ramblers have been good when going forward leading up to this encounter, scoring 11 goals in their last 6 matches. This doesn’t mask the fact that Cobh Ramblers can also improve defensively after being scored against in 5 of those same outings. Such a trend might not be carried forward into this match, of course.
Their past results show that Cobh Ramblers:
- have not emerged victorious against UCD when they've played them away from home in the last 2 league games.
- haven't been defeated in their previous 4 away league matches.

Head to head
If we look at their past head to head meetings dating back to 22/03/2024, there is nothing to separate the two clubs with UCD winning 2 of those games, Cobh Ramblers 2 and 2 being draws in normal time.
An aggregate of 15 goals were produced between them during those clashes, with 8 of them for The Students and 7 coming from Cobh. That’s an average goals per game figure of 2.5.
The last league contest featuring these sides was First Division match day 10 on 18/04/2025 and the score finished Cobh Ramblers 1-0 UCD.
🧠
Prediction
Our feeling is that Cobh Ramblers and UCD may both find scoring difficult here.
It’s looking like it could well end up as a draw. We therefore think that it’s going to be a very close game with a 0-0 draw at the end of this game.
