Kerry

LLWWDL

Kerry will be hoping for a better result after a 2-0 First Division loss in their previous game against Dundalk.

Leonardo Gaxha (43') and Daryl Horgan (69') scored for Dundalk.

Under three goals per game were recorded in 5 of the last 6 meetings where Kerry have been participants. With regard to the goal weighting during this period, opposing sides scored an aggregate of 9 while Kerry managed a tally of 5. That pattern might not follow through here, of course.

Longford Town

DLWDDL

After being defeated in their last game at the hands of Treaty United in First Division competition, Longford Town and their fans will hope to get a better result this time.

Yousef Mahdy (87') scored for Treaty United.

Looking at their form, and Longford Town have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 matches, conceding 11 goals in total. Defensively, Longford Town could really do with shoring things up.

👥 Head to head

Looking at the statistics for their head to head meetings dating back to 08/09/2023, there has been little to separate the clubs with Kerry winning 2 of those games, Longford Town 2 and 2 being draws after 90 minutes of play.

In all, 18 goals were scored between them in this period, with 10 of them for Kerry and 8 coming from The Town. This gives an average number of goals per game equal to 3.

The last league game between the two was First Division match day 5 on 15/03/2025 when it finished Longford Town 3-2 Kerry.

🧠 Prediction

Our thinking is that Kerry are likely to be able to create a decent number of chances and shots on target.

In contrast, Longford Town will be up against it to make a breakthrough although we do reckon that they could well end up converting at least once.

Our tip is for a pretty comfortable 3-1 win for Kerry come full-time.
