LOI Matchday 28 Predictions

September 24th, 2021

Match day 27 ( previous set of matches) had a few more matches than I had originally anticipated, given the catch up with the matches that didn’t get played due to the great European runs, but look I covered 5 of the matches and out of the 5, just 1 prediction came through. Wow things are getting worse by the week.

Running total is 55 correct predictions out of 123 predictions made so far this season in the LOI.

Derry City (66%) vs Longford (13%)
