7.00Tip and bets
The visitors missed many matches due to participation in European Cups, so now they have to make up for lost time. It is unlikely that they will be able to fight for the championship title, but they can still fight for a place in the top three. We believe that Larn is capable of competing on equal terms even with the championship leader, so we advise you to take a risk and bet on the success of the visitors.
Our prediction is Larne not to lose at 1.80
Bet on total
Both teams have been trying to act pragmatically lately and are the best clubs in the championship in terms of defense quality. We believe that in a face-to-face match the opponents will pay attention to defending their goal, so we should not expect a large number of goals scored.
Our prediction is total under 2.5 goals at 1.57
Bet on corners
This is a game where both teams are likely to be defensive, so we're unlikely to see many corner kicks.
Our prediction is under 9.5 corners for 1.90
