Ireland vs Hungary Prediction: The teams are opponents of completely different levels

Prediction for the match between Ireland and Hungary which will take place on June 4. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Ireland

The Irish national team suddenly qualified for the continental finals twice in a row in the past decade, but the Greens are still missing out on Euro 2020 and Euro 2024. Their qualification for the tournament in Germany was particularly bad, as they suffered six defeats in eight games, and only managed to beat Gibraltar twice - 3:0 and 4:0, and even those games were not so easy for them. Of course, this was only enough for the penultimate place in the Group B standings. After that, the Irish held three more friendlies. In games against New Zealand and Belgium were draws - 1:1 and 0:0, respectively, and the national team of Switzerland they lost - 0:1.

Hungary

The Hungarian national team has made serious progress in recent years. Before Euro 2016, they had missed ten consecutive continental championships, but then they broke their streak of disappointing qualifying cycles and will now play in their third consecutive European Championship. The Tricolours had a particularly strong qualifying campaign for Euro 2024, where they were placed in a very even group with the Serbs, Montenegrins, Lithuanians and Bulgarians, but they did not allow a single defeat in eight rounds, with five wins and three draws, so they got a ticket to Germany from the first place. The Hungarians played two friendlies in 2024, in which they beat Turkey and Kosovo 1:0 and 2:0 respectively.

Expert Betting Tips

The national teams of Ireland and Hungary at the moment are opponents of completely different levels. Over the last calendar year, the Greens have won only two victories, and those were obtained in the rivalry with Gibraltarians, a couple of times they played a draw, and in seven cases suffered defeat. The Magyars have much better statistics, as their last failure was almost two (!) years ago, when they lost to the Italians, after which they won nine times in 14 games with five draws. That's a great statistic! Now they are the favourites for the clash.
