Football Bet of the Day: Defences have nothing to Bray about

Irish goalkeepers might want to look away now

Back Over 2.5 Goals @ 1.834/5 in Shamrock Rovers v Bray

Today's sole Irish Premier League fixture could be a rich source of entertainment, says Tobias Gourlay

Shamrock Rovers v Bray
Tuesday 20:00


In Romania last night, the Eagles soared just high enough to get over the goals line and bring down our bet. A 2-1 win for Concordia means we'll be calling liberally on the drinks trolley during our flight to Dublin.

Shamrock Rovers are also welcoming Bray Wanderers to Tallaght Stadium today. The Hoops are W4-D1-L0 on home turf recently, scoring at least twice in 3/5, while notching just a couple of clean sheets.

Third-placed Bray, who start as outsiders for this one, have struck 16 times in eight away games this year. Seven of those matches have delivered Over 2.5 Goals in total and that's our bet for today.
