Cork City extended their winless run in the league to 13 games after losing 2-0 to Waterford in their recent league match. They are now at the bottom of the Premier Division table. However, they will have a good chance to get a win on Saturday as they host Sligo Rovers, who are second from the bottom in the same table. But Sligo Rovers are now unbeaten in four games, which is a key point.

Moving forward, Cork City are on a four-game unbeaten run against Sligo Rovers in the head-to-head. Also, Cork City have not lost in seven home matches against Sligo Rovers. Both teams scoring is common in the head-to-head matches between these two, and Cork City scored 7 goals in their last two meetings here while allowing 4.

Who will win the match between Cork City vs Sligo Rovers?

Cork City are strong at home and were unbeaten in four of their last six matches, which includes four Premier Division games. On the other hand, Sligo Rovers did not win in five of their last six away league matches. Also, Cork City have a strong head-to-head record against Sligo Rovers at home. Based on all this, we predict a clear win for the home team.

How many goals can be expected?

Cork City have a good attack at home and scored 4 goals in their last two home games. Also, two of their last three head-to-head games at this venue had many goals. With that in mind, we choose over 2.5 goals for this match.

Will both teams score in the match?

Cork City allowed 5 goals in their last five home matches. Meanwhile, Sligo Rovers scored in four of their last five away matches. So, we expect both teams to score in this match.

Cork City vs Sligo Rovers Prediction

Cork City are on a good run at home with four unbeaten games in their last six. The games they lost in that time were against Celtic and Bohemians. Their attack scored 4 goals in their last two home games while conceding 2.

Looking at Cork City’s good scoring and weak defense at home, we predict a 2-1 win for them as the main tip for this match. Both teams to score is our second pick, as two of the last three head-to-head games at this venue saw that happen. Also, Sligo Rovers scored in four of their last five away matches.
