Ireland vs Wales: Prediction, tips and odds

WALES are a different prospect without their stars Gareth Bale and Aaron Ramsey.

The Irish are struggling to hit the back of the net under Martin O’Neill but they are a resilient side and will be out for revenge after being thrashed 4-1 in Wales.

  • Ireland to win both halves: 8/1 with Sky Bet
  • A draw at half-time: 19/20 with Betstars

We're backing Martin O'Niell's men to win both halves

The Boys in Green held group favourites Denmark to a goalless draw at the Aviva last time out which will give them renewed hope.

We are going with the Irish to win both halves at 8/1 with Sky Bet.

With both knowing defeat would be disastrous for their Nations League campaign this could be a cagey affair – a draw at half-time is odds on at 19/20 with Betstars.
