With a stacked summer schedule now in full swing, there are plenty of eye-catching betting promotions available.

Starting with the hosts, after narrowly falling short last season as they eventually missed out on a play-off ticket, Longford are desperate to go one-step further this time around. Last seen putting in an eye-catching performance as they secured a thumping 3-1 victory at home against Treaty United, Wayne Groves’ side will be dreaming of a repeat performance on Saturday night. However, still waiting to claim consecutive First Division wins so far this season, they are also searching for some much-welcomed defensive grit. Getting May underway with a 2-0 loss against UC Dublin, Longford have failed to record a clean sheet from any of their last six straight attempts. Likewise, Saturday’s hosts have also failed to record a clean sheet in front of their own supporters since the end of April. Opening this weekend’s fixtures sat within touching distance of the play-off places, it should also be noted that Longford have seen their previous four First Division battles produce 13 goals at both ends of the pitch.

As for the visitors, while Cobh might have found themselves at the heart of a public wobble on either side of opening May, the Ramblers have come roaring back in an impressive fashion. Last seen putting in a routine display as they secured a 2-0 victory at home against Kerry, Fran Rockett’s side are scrapping it out at the top of the First Division standings. Getting this weekend’s fixtures underway sat in bronze medal position and within touching distance of leapfrogging UC Dublin, Cobh will be looking to make another statement here. With their recent purple patch underlined by a 2-1 win away at Treaty United on May 22nd, Saturday’s guests have won their previous three consecutive First Division matchups by an aggregate score of 5-1. Likewise, Rockett’s men will also be excited by their most recent trip to Strokestown Road. In fact, the promotion hopefuls secured a 2-1 win when they last travelled to Longford back on February 21st.
