Kerry vs Monaghan: Preview & Odds - All-Ireland Senior Football Championship

🏆 Kerry vs Monaghan: Who Will Win?

Kerry enter the 2024 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship as one of the favourites to lift the Sam Maguire Cup, having won the Munster Senior Football Championship for the fourth year running, while finishing third in Division 1 of the 2024 National Football League (NFL). They beat Clare 0-23 to 1-13 in the MSFC final, which is an impressive score in itself, but fans of The Kingdom will be worried about the fact that they have not scored a goal in three consecutive matches. However, they will always remain a tough team to beat when they can call upon the likes of Sean O'Shea, Paudie Clifford, and David Clifford.

Monaghan qualified for the Group Stage of the All-Ireland SFC as one of the seven highest-ranked teams from the National Football League, but they have little chance of winning. They finished at the bottom of Division 1 in the NFL with just one win from their seven matches, conceding a staggering 148 points in the process. Then, in the 2024 Ulster Senior Football Championship, they were knocked out in the Preliminary Round after suffering a six-point defeat to Cavan.

There is a big gulf in class between these two teams and Kerry will fancy getting their All-Ireland Senior Football Championship off to a winning start. For me, there is only one winner in this match, and that is Kerry. I do not even see it being a close contest in all honesty.

💯 Kerry vs Monaghan All-Ireland SFC Match Odds

As usual, the top Irish sports betting sites will offer some different markets for this Kerry vs Monaghan game such as the match winner, the first team to score, the winning margin, and the team that will be winning at half-time. However, since the match winner market is the most popular among Irish Gaelic football bettors, it is what I am going to be focusing on.

🏅Kerry vs Monaghan: Match Winner

As you can tell from the odds below, even the best betting sites believe that this will end up being like a walk in a proverbial park for Kerry. You might be tempted by the longer odds for a Monaghan win, but betting on them to come out on top will be like flushing your money down the toilet.

1️⃣ Kerry Update

Kerry might not have been playing at the best of their ability in recent matches, but it is not like they have been diabolical. They have failed to score in four of their previous five matches, but they are still managing to rack up points and win, which is all that matters. I do not doubt that the goals will soon start to flow, and they will show us just why they are one of the favourites to win the 2024 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship.

2️⃣ Monaghan Update

Monaghan's form has deserted them in recent months, which is one of the reasons why you will find odds as long as 126.00 for them to go on and lift the 2024 All-Ireland SFC title. They have made it to the final just once in their history, which was way back in 1930, and it is very hard to see them breaking their duck this time around. They concede too many goals, which gives them an uphill task to win a match.
