UCD
WLLLWW
UCD are hoping to win again after their last result, the 0-5 First Division triumph vs Finn Harps.
The only scorer from UCD was Killian Cailloce (18', 72').
Fixtures with UCD have proved to be exciting affairs of late with high scoring being a real hallmark. Over their past six games alone, a grand total of 23 goals have been scored for both sides combined (at an average of 3.83 goals per game) with 13 of these accredited to UCD. Nonetheless, we must now wait to see if that pattern shall be sustained in this upcoming game.
Kerry
WLWDLW
Kerry will go into the encounter after a 1-0 First Division win in the defeat of Athlone in their previous outing.
Billy Dennehy's Kerry have turned their attacks into goals a total of 6 times throughout their latest sextet of matches. The number of goals that have been scored against them during those same matches comes to 6.
Their past results show that Kerry:
- haven't beaten UCD in away games against them for the last 2 league games.
- have not won away from home in their last 20 league games. They clearly need to do something about it.

Prediction
In our view, Kerry should have enough to break down this UCD outfit, however that might not be enough to avoid a loss.
Our tip is for a tight encounter finishing with a 2-1 winning margin for UCD by the time that the referee blows the final whistle. Let’s just see how this one goes.
