Analysis & Preview
A Premier Division encounter, Regular Season - 19 sees Bohemians travel to Turners Cross to take on Cork City. The game is scheduled for Friday 13 June 2025, 19:45 UTC.
Form Analysis
Looking at all fixtures this season, Cork City stand at 2W 1D 7L from 10 Premier Division matches — 0.70 PPG. Last five: W L D L L. They are averaging 0.80 goals per game and conceding 1.80 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. Both teams have scored in just 30% of their matches, indicating a tendency toward clean sheets or low-scoring outcomes. Cork City haven't played a Premier Division game yet this season, so this record is entirely from last season.
Cork City's form when playing at home: 3W 3D 4L across 10 games at Turners Cross this term (1.20 PPG). At home they are averaging 0.90 goals scored and 0.90 conceded per game. Their home PPG of 1.20 is noticeably stronger than their overall 0.70 — Cork City are significantly better at Turners Cross than their overall form suggests.
Across all Premier Division games this season, Bohemians have recorded 3W 4D 3L from 10 outings — 1.30 PPG. Last five: D L W D D. Their scoring rate of 1.10 per game is modest, conceding 1.00 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market.
Bohemians away from home this season: 2W 6D 2L from 10 away games — 1.20 PPG on the road. Away from home they average 1.10 goals scored and 0.90 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context.
Form points away from home here. Bohemians's 1.30 PPG return is 0.60 points per game ahead of Cork City's 0.70 — the visitors are the form-based selection, and Double Chance is an alternative worth pricing if the outright looks tight.
H2H Record
The H2H landscape is flat: 6 previous encounters have yielded 2 wins for Cork City, 4 for Bohemians and 0 draws. A neutral reading in isolation.
The 6 previous encounters between these sides have been high-scoring affairs — 3.2 goals per contest on average. Historical precedent backs the Over 2.5 goals market. The most recent clash, on 18 Apr 2025, ended 0–1 with Bohemians winning.
With the win record balanced, the strongest H2H-derived signal is in the goals market. At 3.2 goals per game historically, Over 2.5 is the cleaner angle to extract from the head-to-head data.
In-Play Profile
Cork City in-play tendencies (37 games, 18 at home): they score before half-time in 67% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 89% of the time; BTTS occurs in 44% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 39% of games (home games); they fail to score in 35% of games.
Bohemians in-play tendencies (37 games, 18 at away): they score before half-time in 61% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 91% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 54% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 50% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 33% of games (away games).
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Cork City 46% versus Bohemians 54%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Cork City 54% | Bohemians 38%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Cork City 1.04 xG and Bohemians 1.30 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Cork City attack 0.868 / defence 1.165 | Bohemians attack 0.987 / defence 0.896. League average goals — home 1.343 / away 1.131. Data: 18 Cork City games / 54 Bohemians games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Cork City 30% | Draw 28% | Bohemians 42%. Fair-value odds: Cork City 3.33 | Draw 3.57 | Bohemians 2.38. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome exceeds 45%. The draw at 28% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 42% | BTTS probability 47% | Total xG 2.34. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 58% — total xG of 2.34 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS probability of 47% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Summary & Verdict
The Poisson model's primary lean is Bohemians at 42% — marginal model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. With a 28% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Bohemians offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win. The opposing side holds a 30% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.
Poisson projects 2.34 total expected goals, pointing to Under 2.5 at 42% probability — marginal — conflicting signals conviction, supported by form averaging 1.9 goals per game — though H2H averaging only 3.2 goals per meeting points in the other direction.
The Poisson model's BTTS call is No at 47%. Form rates are neutral: Cork City 40% | Bohemians 60%.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Bohemians beat Cork City 0-2 at Turners Cross, Regular Season - 19, in the Premier Division. That is the final score; the rest of this report grades it against what the data forecast beforehand.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Cork City 1.04 xG and Bohemians 1.30 xG, a combined 2.34. The scoreboard read 0-2 for 2 actual goals. Cork City fell 1.0 short of their projected output. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Cork City attack 0.87 / defence 1.17 against Bohemians attack 0.99 / defence 0.90, drawn from 18/54 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Cork City 30% | Draw 28% | Bohemians 42%, with Bohemians to win its most likely call at 42%. The scoreboard confirmed the model's leading pick.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 42%. The game delivered 2, so it stayed under — the model's lean was correct. Over 1.5 had been 68% and landed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 47% and the match did not — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 46% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Cork City 54%, Bohemians 38%), a base rate that agreed with today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 50%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Cork City's trading profile (37 games, 18 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 46% of their matches — today it did not; they fail to score in 35% of games, a blank that repeated today.
Bohemians's trading profile (37 games, 18 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 54% of their matches — today it did not.
Form vs Result
The form lines were close — Cork City 0.84 PPG, Bohemians 1.22 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Bohemians win broke the near-deadlock. Cork City (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.11 scoring average — below par going forward and shipped 2 against a 1.11 concession average — a leakier day than usual. Bohemians (home/away splits) scored 2 against a 1.17 average — above their attacking norm and conceded 0 against a 1.00 average — tighter than their form line.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 3 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (hit), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (hit). The data earned its keep here, calling the bulk of the fixture correctly.
