🏆 Dublin v Wexford Prediction

Here is our Dublin v Wexford prediction ahead of what is sure to be a hotly contested Leinster Championship clash on April 26th. Under new boss Niall O’Ceallachain, Dublin failed to get promoted from Division 1B of the National League, finishing 3rd overall. The Dubs managed to win 4 of their 6 games, only losing to the top 2, Waterford and Offaly. They achieved revenge against Offaly in the Round 1 of the Leinster Championship, defeating the Faithful County in a closely contested match, 1-25 to 2-19.

Wexford, for their part, were relegated from Division 1A of the League, finishing 6th out of 7 teams. The Model County only won 2 of their 7 matches. Keith Rossiter’s team began their 2025 Leinster Championship with an easy win over Antrim at Wexford Park. Lee Chin was certainly to the fore in that game, hitting 0-16 points, and Wexford will hope the former All-Star is as prolific once again in Parnell Park. Dublin have reached 2 Leinster Finals since 2021, losing both to Kilkenny; that includes the 2024 decider. Our prediction for this game is that Niall O’Ceallachain’s men will put themselves in a great position to try and qualify for another one, with a tight win over Wexford in Parnell Park.

✔️ Dublin v Wexford Betting Tips

Below we have listed 3 betting tips that might come in handy if you have any free bet offers to take advantage of ahead of the match.

  • Tip 1: Dublin to win: Dublin have had a good history in Leinster Championships recently, so don’t rule out the team from the Capital having an impact on this year’s competition as well. They may be underdogs heading into this game against Wexford, but Dublin have not lost to Wexford in Leinster Championship fare since 2018. That statistic, and the fact that Dublin have accrued some big game experience in recent years, means they are given the nod over Wexford ahead of this Leinster match on April 26th. If you agree that Dublin can emerge with the win, you can get a price of 2.75 with Lunubet Sports on that happening at Parnell Park.
  • Tip 2: Lee Chin to score a goal at any time: As ever, the brilliant Faythe Harriers man will be Wexford’s main weapon during the 2025 Leinster Hurling Championship. The 2019 All-Star has hit an incredible 6 – 211 in Leinster Championship hurling for his county, including a brilliant haul of 0-16 points in Round 1 against Antrim. If Wexford are to trouble the Dublin goals when the sides meet at Parnell Park, expect the 32-year-old to be at the forefront of any goalmouth action.
  • Tip 3: Dublin to win by 1-6 points: As has been said, this should be an ultra-competitive meeting between Dublin and Wexford. The two sides have drawn 2 of their last 4 Leinster Championship matches, while Dublin have won the other two clashes by 1 and 2 points respectively. That suggests a tight margin of victory either way, if indeed one of the teams is victorious. If, like us, you think Dublin can squeeze out a win, you can get a price of 3.60 with Directionbet Sport on Dublin winning by 1-6 points.

📈 Dublin Squad Form

Dublin’s big game experience shone through at the end of their opening round win over Offaly. As Offaly’s scoring began to dry up at the end of the match, Dublin rallied, and led by substitute Ronan Hayes, outscored their opponents 1-4 -0-1, after the 68th minute. Brian Hayes, Sean Currie and Donal Burke also shone for the Dubs as they kicked off their season with a win, and Niall O’Ceallachain will look to that trio once again to lead the side to victory over Wexford.

⚽ Wexford Squad Form

Wexford began their Championship with a comfortable 11-point win over Antrim during Round 1. Lee Chin fired over 0-16 points to help his team, with the likes of Rory O’Connor and Conor Hearne also stepping up in Wexford Park. Keith Rossiter will need more of his best players to come to the fore against Dublin if they want to get out of the Capital with anything.
