Dundalk vs Bohemians Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 1.49 expected goals for Dundalk and 1.84 for Bohemians, a combined total of 3.32. That distribution gives Bohemians the largest share of the 1X2 market at 46%, with the draw at 23%. Goals markets follow the same shape: 65% for over 2.5 goals and 65% for both teams to score, with 1–1 the single most likely scoreline at 10%. Probabilities are statistical estimates and carry meaningful uncertainty — a 46% favourite still loses or draws a large share of the time.

    Prediction conclusion

    The model's leading selection is Bohemians win, at 46.0%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–1.

    It puts both teams scoring at 65% and over 2.5 goals at 65%.

    A 46% 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.
