UC Dublin take on the visitors Longford at “UCD Bowl” in the matchday 18 of the Irish Division 1. The game will be played in Dublin on Friday, June 29th.
UC Dublin earned 12 victories in 17 encounters conducted, having lost only three tackles so far. The team has picked up 38 points already, being the main contender for the direct promotion to the Premier Division. The club is seven points ahead the closest chaser, thus, “The Students” may feel safe enough and not to be afraid of losing that gap in the nearest future. UC Dublin demonstrate the best results in the league like at the home ground, like on the road. However, “The Students” produce extremely successful performance in face of their supporters, having got seven triumphs and single draw in eight clashes. The side’s winning streak counts four six tackles while last time UC Dublin lost points at “UCD Bowl” was in early March.

In their turn, Longford are the regular participant of the Division 1, even though the team managed to conduct three seasons in the Premier Division during last seven years. Still, in the case of appearance in the elite division, the club didn’t spend more than two consecutive seasons there. Thus, there is no wonder that the hosts’ major achievements in their history are two League Cup trophies. The side shows predictably humble performance in this season, sitting currently on the fourth out of 10 overall positions in the table. Longford have earned eight victories and four defeats in 17 games played which is quite decent result. However, all its triumphs were gained over the clubs which settle lower in the standings than the upcoming hosts while against the leaders the team’s greatest success was a draw.
UC Dublin have advantage in their head-to-heads against Longford, having reached eight wins and two draws in 10 recent clashes. Last time Longford beat the forthcoming hosts in 2007 while in Dublin they celebrated a victory 15 years ago. The rivals met four times at “UCD Bowl” during last 10 years and UC Dublin won three out of four those battles. The hosts demonstrate astonishing football in this season and rush at full speed to the Premier Division, besides, they completely dominate over Longford in their head-to-head statistics, thus, I expect for another triumph of “The Students”.
Prediction for the match: UC Dublin to win.
