Cork City take on the visitors Bohemians at “Turners Cross” in the matchday 23 of the Irish Premier Division. The game will be played in Cork on Friday, June 15th.
Cork City have been significantly progressing in recent years as the club is ruled by few people who are eager to turn “Rebel Army” into a real grand. So far, they succeed in it and the last season’s champion’s title is a good evidence of that. The team hasn’t slowed down in this season as well, producing magnificent football. Thus, the side collected impressive 17 victories in 22 encounters conducted, as a result, it takes the lead in the table with 53 points earned. However, Dundalk currently settle on the second place with 52 points gained, hence, there is no time for the hosts to relax. In the latest rounds Cork City has been on fire, recording triumph by triumph. The team succeeded in six battles in a row with at least two-goal margin in each of them. The side’s home statistics impresses even more: 10 victories with 22-3 goal difference in 10 games played.

Meanwhile, Bohemians are the 11 times holder of the Irish Premier Division champion’s title with the last one dating back to 2009, thus, it looks like the club’s best times are in the past. “The Gypsies” participated in 21 tackles in this season, sitting now only on the seventh position in the elite division standings with 21 points earned and being 32 points behind Cork City which is a huge gap. The team failed its previous battle against Derry City with 1:2 scoreline, giving got 1:1 draw against Limerick in the prior fight. In general, Bohemians’ no-win run consists of four consecutive games. Last time “The Gypsies” celebrated a victory over Bray which confidently occupy the last place wit lost 17 defeats gained in 22 clashes conducted. Although the visitors’ unbeaten series on the road counts for four encounters, this statistics usually gets spoilt in the tackles against the leaders.
Cork City and Bohemians have met twice in this season with both head-to-heads finished in confident triumphs of Cork City: 3:0 in face of their supporters and 0:2 at away field. At this point “Rebel Army” is on a good pace and it isn’t going to slow down. Neither of 10 previous opponents succeeded in getting at least a draw at Cork City’s home turf and I doubt Bohemians who are sitting on the seventh place will manage to do that, especially, taking into account that the forthcoming visitors hasn’t impressed in recent fights played on the road. Thus, personally I don’t see any pros in favour of Bohemians and expect for another confident victory of the hosts.
Prediction for the match: Cork City to win with -1.5 Asian handicap.
