Wexford Youths form and stats
With 1 First Division win, 2 draws and 7 defeats from their home games, Wexford Youths are certainly not brimming with confidence.
The fans are hoping that Wexford will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-4 away loss in the First Division game against Shelbourne (placed 1st).

Cobh Ramblers aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 388 league minutes without a goal. N. O'Connell was the last player to find the net.
