Corners Prediction

Under 8.5 Corners -100 BetMGM logo

It has now been three consecutive Shelbourne games where the 8.5 Total Corners line has not been covered, while we’ve seen an average of 6.80 corners in the previous five Shamrock home matches. There’s everything to like about the Total Corners line which looks high and we’d expect the teams to go under at -100.
