After two games we know a little more about the qualities of Galway United and Cabinteely in this fresh First Division season. Read our match preview!
These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only three days ago in the League Cup. This match was also played here at Eamonn Deacy Park. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Cabinteely have had more rest.
Galway United form and stats
A nice win for Galway United last time playing, versus Athlone Town. That was also a home game and the match ended 2-0. 0-0 away at Wexford Youths before that.
The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Galway United have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found six matches with the results: Won two, drawn two and lost two.
Cabinteely form and stats
A perfect away game record so far for the visitors in the First Division, but they have only played once. Last season their away game stats were 6 wins, 6 draws and 1 defeat from 13 matches.
Cabinteely won their last game, 4-3 versus Crumlin United (after extra-time) played at home. That result followed a home victory 1-0 versus Shamrock Rovers II in the First Division.
As you can tell from the result, the match against Crumlin United (after extra-time) was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 7 goals, will the fun continue today?
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Cabinteely playing away and similar expectations, we found two relevant matches. Results were zero Cabinteely wins, one draw and one defeat.
Cabinteely have the goal stats of 3-1 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the last six meetings between these two teams are: four wins for Galway United, one draw and one win for Cabinteely. Over 2,5 goals: three times; under 2,5 goals: three games.Top Goalscorers
