We’ve held fast that any and all mentalists should get more milage out of predicting sports games. So it tickles us to report that the Deal Or Deal Druid Master Keith Barry has predicted the exact score of this weekend’s match between Ireland and France. Not only does he predict the final will be 2-1 in favor of his home country, he even goes so far as to predict Ireland’s Robbie Keane (above) as the first goal scorer.
According to Live Odds And Scores.com, those who follow Barry’s advice stand to clean up should he be right.
The odds on Ireland defeating France 2-1 are 10/1 while the odds on Keano hitting the back of the net first are 6/1. Shrewd punters however, have been busy snapping up the 35/1 odds on both occurring!
Earlier this year, Barry correctly predicted the winner and point differential of a rugby match.
Although our love of sports ball only peripherally stretches to international soccer, we can say with authority that Ireland nipping France would be a marked upset, so this is a pretty bold prediction.
Best of luck, bettors.
