✔️ Dublin v Derry Betting Tips
Now, we will take a look at the betting tips you can use for this All-Ireland football group stage clash. If you have any free bet offers, now would be the right time to make the most of them.
- Tip 1: Dublin to Win: Based on quality and form.
Dublin are the favourites for this one with most bookmakers. Dublin performed well against Armagh last time out, but their shooting boots were off, kicking too many wides in their 5-point defeat versus the defending All-Ireland champions. Dublin could still be dangerous, but they need to win on Saturday; otherwise, they could be out of the championship for 2025. We believe Dublin will be too strong for Derry and will get the victory that will see them through to the knockout phase, while Derry will be eliminated. This market is available with DirectionBet at 1.53.
- Tip 2: Dublin handicap -2: Based on recent meetings.
When the sides met earlier in the year in the Allianz National League, Dublin were comfortable winners on a scoreline of 3-20 to 2-12, which is an 11-point margin of victory. Dublin’s previous victory over Derry in the league last year was by 5 points, so we suggest using the handicap market for this one to improve your odds. The handicap market for this game is -2 for Dublin, which, based on previous meetings and form, seems fair. This market is available with DirectionBet at 1.90.
- Tip 3: Cormac Costello to score a goal anytime: Based on quality.
There will be a lot of tension in this game due to its importance for both teams. Goals will be very important in this game to ease any tension and give a platform for victory. Dublin’s Cormac Costello is in great form, scoring 0-8 last time out versus Armagh. He could be the one to help give Dublin the win in this one, so we are tipping him to score a goal anytime.
⚽ Dublin Squad Form
Dublin were shocked in the Leinster Championship, losing their semi-final to Meath, their first defeat in the championship since 2010. They responded well with a win in their opening group game against Galway, but did suffer defeat last time out from Armagh.
⚽Derry Squad Form
Derry have once again been a mixed bag this season. They were relegated from Division 1 of the league and have yet to get a win in the championship. They lost their Ulster first round match to Donegal before losing to Armagh and drawing last time out with Galway in the group stages.
