Northern Ireland vs Slovenia predictions and football betting tips for Monday 28th March’s International friendly as one team prepares for Euro 2016 this summer.
On Monday evening at 19:45 Northern Ireland host Slovenia at Windsor Park, this friendly fixture sees Northern Ireland continue their preparations for their first ever European Championships.
Northern Ireland vs Slovenia Betting Preview
Northern Ireland aren’t doing too bad recently, with two wins in the last five games, including three draws. Their last defeat in all competitions actually dates back all the way to the 25th March 2015. NI have a good home record, they haven’t lost at home since a 4-2 defeat by Portugal back in September 2013, they have won the last two at home and with a difficult group to go into in the summer, they will want to show themselves how good they can be and fine tune so play on the field.
Slovenia have a boring summer ahead with not managing to qualify for the tournament, they have slightly little less to play for than NI with the players not necessarily needing to impress for any sort of place in the team. They have only suffered one defeat in five, they have then split the other four games two wins and two draws. They are not a team who will be rolled over by any sort of the imagination after improving form since a horrendous run of results between 2014 and 2015. With only two wins out of 11 on the road, and nine losses they will surely be the underdogs going into this game.
Northern Ireland vs Slovenia Predictions
Northern Ireland really did seem to dominate the game against Latvia with Slovenia not having too much to shout about in their last fixture. NI seem to really play an attacking line up and may just prove to be too much for the opposition here. The home sides excellent record of late against a Slovenian side with nothing to prove and carrying such a poor away record I can’t see past a home win in this friendly for my Northern Ireland vs Slovenia prediction, many people are expecting a draw but looking deeper into this fixture I believe they will nick it.
What are the best odds for Northern Ireland to beat Slovenia? 13/8 with William Hill.
I don’t think Slovenia will have the passion in this game to really take it to Northern Ireland because they don’t have Euro 2016 to look forward to, I can see a measly 1-0 victory for the home side as my correct score tip on the match, the odds for the market I am going to tip is a little short but it is a bet I do believe will come in. Slovenia didn’t score in their last fixture away from home so my next Northern Ireland vs Slovenia prediction is for both teams NOT to score, the odds are 4/5 with Sky Bet and I do think this is a tip that has a good chance of landing.

Picking goal scoring bets in these international friendly games can be a risk, we are never really aware of the starting line-ups that the manager will pick so you are leaving yourself with the chance of a void bet, however I do prefer anytime goal scorer as it gives you more of a chance if your choice comes on as a substitute later on in the game. Lafferty did start the last game but did not play the full 90 minutes, I think with him having some rest he will be up top again come the start of the game, my final football betting tip for Northern Ireland vs Slovenia is for Lafferty to score anytime, I think the odds of 5/2 for him to score anytime anytime is good value with Bet Victor, as if anyone is likely to score you would definitely think it would be him.
