If you’re playing this one, here’s the unvarnished truth.
Derry City U20 at 22 to win feels slightly short given their Jekyll-and-Hyde act in the Premier League U20 this term. Their underlying numbers suggest they’re due a regression — stats nerds would avoid.
Longford Town U20’s 1.16 line intrigues, especially if their center forward (CF) shakes off his cold streak.
The wise guys’ll likely target the Draw 4.8 — these derbies often play out tight, and nerves can stifle attacking flow.
