Kick Off: 1945, 06/07/2017
Stadium: Turner’s Cross
Cork capitalised on the dismissal of Luc Manga when winning 2-0 at Levadia in the Europa League and can finish the job off on home turf.
City had looked the livelier team even before that 42nd-minute red card and will be keen to confirm their superiority at Turner’s Cross.
We’re kicking off our Cork vs Levadia betting tips by backing the hosts to win by more than one goal again at 11/10.
A Look At Cork City’s Betting Odds
Garry Buckley almost pounced on a fumble by keeper Sergei Lepmets before then putting Cork ahead just prior to half-time with a low free-kick from the edge of the area that went under the wall.
Stephen Dooley had strong claims for a penalty turned down before Stephen Beattie banged in a stunning second.
City counter-attacked well and a neat move saw the ball squared to Beattie just outside the box, from where he fired brilliantly into the top left-hand corner of the net.
Looking at the Cork vs Levadia odds, we reckon City can go one better this time and are taking 19/2 for a 3-0 scoreline.
A Look At Levadia Tallinn’s Betting Odds
Despite being down to 10 men, Levadia did come close to drawing level in the second half when Josip Krznaric struck the underside of the bar.
That was a rare positive move from the Estonian outfit, though, with Mark McNulty otherwise having little to do.
The pace and hustling ability of Sean Maguire gave Levadia problems throughout the first leg and they look there for the taking in Ireland.
We’re rounding off our Cork vs Levadia predictions by taking 31/20 for a home win to nil.
