Wexford vs Cork City Live Stream, Predictions (Jun 12)

📏 Form Guide

Wexford

WLLLWL

Wexford will be hoping for a better result following the 4-0 First Division defeat last time out to Bray Wanderers.

Dan Ring (56', 65') was the scorer for Bray Wanderers.

It has been seldom in recent times that Wexford haven’t conceded. In fact, Wexford have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous 6 games, shipping 10 goals in the process.

Cork City

LWWWWW 🔥

Cork City go into this meeting after a 4-0 First Division win over Finn Harps in their previous fixture.

The only name on the scoresheet from Cork City was Ruairi Keating (16', 89').

A tendency of at least one team not managing to score in games featuring Cork City has been evident in recent matches. Checking on their last 6 outings reveals that this has occurred 5 times. In those clashes, opposing sides have managed a goal tally of 2 while Cork City have scored 13. It will be interesting to see whether or not that trend will end up being continued on here.

🤜🤛 Head to head

An inspection of their past head to head meetings going back to 01/04/2024 shows that these encounters have been a source of anguish for Wexford. They have not been able to register any wins whatsoever while Cork City have been superior, getting wins in 67% of those ties.

Those games weren’t short on goals, either, with 22 in total at an average of 3.67 goals per match.

The last league match between the two was First Division match day 11 on 17/04/2026 when it ended Cork City 2-1 Wexford.

📋 Team News: Wexford

It seems likely that The Warriors may well make use of the 5-3-2 system in the match, beginning the first half with Stephen McMullan, Will Johnson, Hayden Cann, John Mahon, Kevin Long, Benny Couto, Conan Noonan, Luke Heeney, Dean McMenamy, Tommy Lonergan and Padraig Amond.

📋 Team News: Cork City

We’re of the thinking that The Rebel Army appear most likely to elect for a 4-2-3-1 system with a starting lineup of Sam Sargeant, Jeannot Esua, Oliver Denham, Gareth McElroy, Shane Blaney, Carl McHugh, Sean McHale, Ryan O'Kane, Daire Patton, William Fitzgerald and Cian Kavanagh.

🧠 Prediction

When taking everything into account, Wexford will have to perform well to breach the defence of this Cork City outfit who we think will manage to score & go ahead.

We therefore think that it’s going to be a very competitive game with a 0-1 victory for Cork City at full-time.

Should be a close one.
