Bohemians vs Drogheda United Prediction, Odds & Statistics
Our Poisson-based model projects 2.20 expected goals for Bohemians and 0.98 for Drogheda United, a combined total of 3.18.

Goals markets follow the same shape: 62% for over 2.5 goals and 56% for both teams to score, with 2–0 the single most likely scoreline at 10%.

Prediction conclusion
The model's leading selection is Bohemians win, at 64.9%. Its single most likely scoreline is 2–0.
It puts both teams scoring at 56% and over 2.5 goals at 62%.
A 65% selection is expected to miss in the remaining share of matches, and football regularly produces red cards, injuries and tactical changes the data cannot see. Treat this as a probability, not a forecast of the result.
