Ireland vs Hungary Prediction
Ireland Form
The Ireland team look in good shape before their match against Hungary, as they seek to remain unbeaten. Firstly, they beat Bulgaria 1-2, then they held Senegal to a 1-1 draw. Their last outing resulted in a hard fought 0-0 draw Luxembourg. Ireland just have a single home win to show from their efforts in the past six World Cup Qualification matches at the Aviva Stadium. They also drew three and lost two of these six encounters, in which they scored five and conceded eight goals.
Hungary Form
Hungary suffered a couple of disappointments in their last three matches as they were run over by Turkey in a 3-1 defeat. Sweden also proved too hard to handle as they won 0-2, before Hungary were able to strike back in a 1-2 win against Azerbaijan. Hungary managed a decent return of three wins in their last six World Cup Qualification away matches, in which they scored 12 while also conceding nine times. They also experienced one draw and two defeats.
We trust neither defence to be able to keep their opponent at bay, when Ireland welcome Hungary this coming Saturday. Goals should be flowing at both ends of the pitch.
