Armagh vs Galway Prediction, Betting Tips, Odds - All-Ireland SFC Final

🏆Armagh vs Galway Prediction

Galway have remained unbeaten in the entire championship, having not dropped a game in the Connacht championship prior and ultimately won their provincial title. They also managed to avoid a loss in the group stage of the All-Ireland, winning twice versus Westmeath and Derry and drawing with their All-Ireland-final opponents Armagh. They defeated Monaghan, Dublin, and Donegal in the knockout stages to make it to the All-Ireland final.

Armagh have only suffered one championship defeat: an Ulster final defeat to Donegal, although this defeat was on penalties. They also had two wins and a draw in the group stage and beat Roscommon and Kerry in the knockout stages to make it to this All-Ireland final. This game is a tough one to call and both sides will be confident after victories against All-Ireland favourites to this point. Armagh were excellent against Kerry, but it could be argued Kerry left it behind them. Galway were excellent against Donegal and in their quarter-final versus Dublin, so I am tipping them to be crowned All-Ireland champions.

✔️ Armagh vs Galway Betting Tips

Armagh vs Galway is an intriguing All-Ireland SFC final and here are some betting tips if you are unsure how the match will transpire.

Tip 1: Galway to Win

This game is very much a toss of the coin, but the stats are slightly in favour of Galway. They are better in possession, losing less turnovers than Armagh. They both had the same score efficiency in their semi-finals, but Galway had a much better attack efficiency. This game will no doubt be tight, but I think Galway will have enough, and I would go with them at odds of 1.91 with BoyleSports.

Tip 2: Total Points Over 31.5

Armagh have averaged around 18 points a game so far while Galway have managed around 17. At 35 points, I think over 31.5 points has to be my pick for this market.

Tip 3 Shane Walsh to Win Man of the Match

Shane Walsh has shown throughout this championship that he is Galway’s star man. He has been battling injuries throughout 2024, but he has left everything on the pitch for his team in each game. He is a player who will definitely deserve a break after this last match, but he will no doubt play a big part in the All-Ireland SFC final beforehand. He has shown how dangerous he is even when not fully fit, so after a two-week rest, he will definitely be one to watch for man of the match.

• Tip 1: Galway to Win - price of 2.25 at DirectionBet.
• Tip 2: Total Points Over 31.5 - price of 1.62 with BoyleSports
• Tip 3: Shane Walsh as Man of the Match - price of 6.50 with BoyleSports
