Gibraltar vs Ireland Prediction & Betting Tips - Euro

Prediction published on 16/10/2023, 06:05  by Sridhar in Euro Predictions

Gibraltar and Republic of Ireland are already eliminated from the European Championship Qualification race in Group B, but their game could witness some action. Their match will be played at the Estádio Algarve on Monday with Ireland fourth on three points and Gibraltar fifth on zero points. Gibraltar are yet to score a goal in this campaign, having conceded 17 goals so far. They have lost their last seven matches in a row, including all five in this qualification campaign. Each of those seven defeats have come with a scoring blank, underlining their poor scoring record. They have conceded at least three goals in six of those matches, highlighting deficiencies at both ends of the pitch for Gibraltar. In addition, 13 of their last 15 defeats in the Euro qualifiers have come without them scoring a goal, which could be again the case here.

Ireland are also eliminated from the qualification race, although they still have a chance to advance to play-offs. They come into this match with one win and five defeats in this campaign. Their lone win, incidentally, has come in the return fixture that they won 3-0. Post that, they fell to three straight defeats in the qualifiers, losing to France, the Netherlands and Greece. Those made it six losses across their last seven Euro qualifiers, so the task at hand is huge although they have the luxury of playing against a side, they have a great H2H record against. Ireland have won all five previous head-to-head matches, each time with a clean sheet. Continuing that sequence will need them halting a four-game losing streak on the road in the Euro qualifiers.
