🏆 Kerry v Cavan Prediction

Kerry face Cavan in the All-Ireland preliminary quarter-finals after a shock defeat to Meath in their final group stage game. Now in the knockout phase, there's no room for error and Kerry will be desperate to respond. With the attacking talent they have at their disposal, it’s hard to see Cavan keeping pace. A comfortable Kerry win looks likely, and that’s our prediction for this clash.

✔️ Kerry v Cavan Betting Tips

Now we will look at our Kerry v Cavan betting tips that you could think about using for this All-Ireland football preliminary quarter-final clash, especially if you happen to have any free bet offers with any bookmakers.

  • Tip 1: Kerry to Win as part of an accumulator: Based on quality and form.

    Kerry are the heavy favourites for this one, and the odds are not beneficial if you are looking to win money in this game. The bookmakers are expecting an easy victory for Kerry in this one, and we agree that it will be a win for Kerry and by a comfortable margin. It might be beneficial to consider putting Kerry to win as part of an accumulator bet to get the most out of the market. Kerry to win market is available with DirectionBet at odds of 1.03.

  • Tip 2: Kerry handicap -11: Based on recent results.

    In their last two games in the group stages of the All-Ireland championship, Cavan lost by 13 points to Tyrone and conceded 0-31. In the previous game versus Ulster champions Donegal, they lost by 19 points, conceding 3-26 in the process. Cavan will be low on confidence and are coming up against strong opposition in Kerry, like they did versus Tyrone and Donegal. So, there’s a good chance they will suffer another heavy defeat with DirectionBet offering a -11 handicap on Kerry, which we recommend. This market is available with DirectionBet at odds of 1.83.

  • Tip 3: Kerry half time/full time: Based on quality.

    Kerry is very strong and will likely dominate this game, especially since they have the advantage of playing at home. They will want to start strong, as they aimed to qualify directly for the quarter-finals, instead of having to compete in this preliminary quarter-final due to their defeat against Meath. Kerry is likely to be frustrated and eager to finish this game quickly so they can rest players for the upcoming quarter-final. Expect Kerry to lead at halftime and ultimately win the game. This market is available with DirectionBet at odds of 1.14.

⚽ Kerry Squad Form

Kerry will be disappointed that they didn’t finish top of their group in the All Ireland group phase. They got wins over Roscommon and rivals Cork before a shock defeat in their last game to Meath, which means they have to play this extra game.

⚽ Cavan Squad Form

Cavan had a win and two defeats in the All-Ireland group stage, with a victory coming against Mayo in their opening fixture. They suffered two heavy defeats to All-Ireland contenders Donegal and Tyrone.
