Handicap Republic of Ireland (0) • 1.68

Hello everyone! Nations League - very interesting tournament. My thing about this game and some statistics:
- The last time these two nations faced off was a friendly match in September 2019, where Ireland won 3-1.
- Ireland lost only one game last 12 matches.
- Bulgaria can not score a goal in four of last five matches.
- Ireland have scored in each of the last seven meetings with Bulgaria.

Ireland is in a better form compared to Bulgaria ahead of this game, having lost just once in their last 12 matches and with five wins in their last 10 matches.

Under 2.5 Goals • 1.51

I think that this match will be very boring, Both teams show a defensive football.. and few goals... some statements about this team: it is a new era for Ireland Republic. Ireland had developed a tough to beat if uninspiring reputation under their last boss Mick McCarthy, and having seen under 2.5 goals hit the net in 13 of their last 15 matches, it could prove difficult to transition to a more free-flowing style of play in the early stages of Kenny’s tenure.Good Luck boys and ladies! 😎

Under 2 Goals • 2.01

Good game and i want to give my predictions for this game. I think that Ireland will be a winner of this match. Final socre will be 0-1. Not more. But I want to put Total Under 2 goals cause there are some risks.

Bulgary is very weak national team in comparison to Ireland. The Irish will only need to improve on their away form here. Bulgarians have failed to score in four of their last five matches. In their last 14 matches, they have scored more than one goal on only one goal.
One more tine: 0-1.

Republic of Ireland Win • 2.41

Prediction:
0-1.
The Bulgarians failed to impress in the Euro 2020 qualifiers, with the team finishing the process in fourth position in the standings. Georgi Dermendzhiev’s troops are eager to get back on course, but the Nations League game against Ireland will be anything but a walk in the park for the hosts.

The Boys in Green will be without Glenn Whelan, Michael Obafemi, Sean Maguire, and Scott Hogan in Thursday’s clash, but the likes of Shane Long and James McCarthy return to the squad. Anyhow, Ireland are more of a team than Bulgaria, and they should take advantage of the fact that the game will be played behind closed doors. Both Jayson Molumby and Adam Idah are eyeing their senior international debuts with Republic of Ireland.

Republic of Ireland or Draw • 1.36

Not entirely sure about this one to be fair. As for me, I'd like to make a safe bet by preferring Ireland over Bulgaria as they are a much higher ***** of a team.
I don't think that we will see more than 2 goals in this game. I suppose the play will be quite soft and friendly. Probably end up in a draw.
