📏 Form Guide

UCD

WDLLWW

UCD, following on from their previous result, will be hoping for more of the same after the 0-2 First Division success against Athlone.

An interesting theme in more recent UCD games is the high number of scores with a nil in them.

From their prior sextet of matches before this one, in 5 of them a wager on BTTS would have been a loser. That sort of pattern won’t necessarily be carried forward into this next game, though.

Wexford

DDDLWW 🌤

Wexford will go into the meeting following on from a 2-1 First Division win against Bray Wanderers in their previous match.

Wexford have attacked well of late, having scored 9 times in their previous 6 matches. While their manager James Keddy will no doubt take that as a positive sign, Wexford have been somewhat leaky at the back, having also been scored against in 6 of those same outings.

Taking a look at their past results, Wexford:

• have not registered a win against UCD in games played away from home for the previous 3 league games.
• have not won away from home in their last 3 matches in the league.

👥 Head to head

A review of their prior head-to-head clashes stretching back to 02/08/2024 shows us that UCD have won 4 of these and Wexford 1, with the tally of draws standing at 1.

In all, 12 goals were scored between them during those clashes, with 9 of them from The Students and 3 being from The Warriors. That is an average goals per game value of 2.

The last league fixture featuring these clubs was First Division match day 34 on 05/10/2025 when it finished Wexford 0-3 UCD.

🗞️ Team News: UCD

In our view, The Students should line up in a 4-2-3-1 formation for this one and select Kacper Chorazka, Darragh Power, Patrick Hickey, Sam Todd, Senan Mullen, Jordan Flores, Dawson Devoy, Zane Myers, Ross Tierney, Adam McDonnell and Colm Whelan.

📋 Team News: Wexford

From our viewpoint, The Warriors could decide to begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 formation, starting Arlo Doherty, Alan Zborowski, Kevin Long, John Mahon, Jesse Dempsey, Jordan Faria, Dean McMenamy, Conan Noonan, Evan McLaughlin, Trae Coyle and Padraig Amond.

✨ Prediction

In this game, Wexford have the firepower to breach the defence of this UCD team, but that is unlikely to be enough to avoid defeat.

Our selection here is for a very close game with a 2-1 victory for UCD at the end of the 90 minutes. Hopefully this is a good one.
