FAI Cup Second Round: Predictability Overshadows Upset Hopes
The FAI Cup second round lacks the usual thrill of underdog victories as favorites face favorable draws. The widening gap in professionalism and conditioning makes giant-killings a tough ask. While some clubs aim to shape their season, the weekend feels grounded and practical, with little room for surprises.
The FAI Cup second round this weekend seems more about predictability than possibility. The draw has been kind to the favorites, with no big clashes early on. The tie of the round is Dundalk vs. Sligo Rovers, but even that feels like a formality. The gap in quality between divisions makes giant-killings tougher than ever. Modern football demands top conditioning and professionalism. This weekend may lack surprises due to the widening gaps in standards.
