Kildare v Dublin Prediction for the Leinster Football Championship 2022 Final

After many matches of pure entertainment and adrenaline, the 2022 Leinster Senior Football Betting Championship has reached the final, and it will see Kildare take on Dublin for the right to lift the title. We are expecting yet another entertaining game, but who do we think will end up lifting the title aloft and bringing joy to their fans? Well, take a look at our prediction below, and you will soon see what we think.

🏐 Kildare and Dublin Recent GAA Leinster Football Performances

We are now going to have a look at how both of these teams made it to the showpiece. When you are betting on Gaelic football finals, or finals or big events in any other sport, it is very wise to see the path that both sides had to navigate in order to be in with a chance of landing the trophy. Why do we say this? Well, if one of the teams have had an easier route to the final, then they might not be as well prepared as a side that has had to fight tooth and nail to get there.

The Leinster Senior Football Championship has a preliminary round, but neither Kildare nor Dublin had to participate in this round since they received a bye to the Quarter-Finals due to the fact that they both made it to the final of the 2021 edition of this competition. For those of you who did not watch that match, Dublin came out on top with the score being 0-20 1-9.

In the Quarter-Finals, Kildare were drawn against Louth, and they picked up a pretty simple win against a Louth side that nobody believed would cause them any issues. Kildare got off to a flyer in this game and had seven points on the board with just 16 minutes on the clock. Louth did improve a bit as the game wore on, but they were still comprehensively outplayed by their opponents.

In the Semi-Finals, Kildare took on Westmeath and they entered the match at Croke Park as favourites to book a spot in the final. There was a bit of an early fright early on in the match as Westmeath took the lead with just 12 seconds on the clock, but the Lilywhites took the lead with eight minutes gone, and they never relinquished that lead for the rest of the game. However, Westmeath never gave up, and they finished the game strongly, and only lost by three points in the end.

Dublin's Quarter-Final match in the 2022 Leinster Senior Football Championship was against Wexford, and they absolutely tore their opponents apart. Nobody really expected Wexford to trouble the talented players that Dublin have at their disposal, and that proved to be the case. They could have let off in the second half with the game clearly in the bag, but showing mercy is not in their nature, and they powered into the Semi-Finals.

They would have expected a trickier game against Meath at Croke Park in the Semi-Final, but they ended up winning easily once again in the end. Dessie Farrell's men bossed all facets of the match - they were stronger, quicker, and more clinical than the Royals. What was very impressive about this win was their conversion rate - they amassed only three wides, and their point-kicking was top-quality. As good as Dublin were, Meath will be disappointed with the showing that they put in, despite the fact that they actually outscored Dublin during the second half.

💯 Odds of Kildare and Dublin Winning the Title

So, who do the sports betting sites feel will go on and lift the 2022 Leinster Senior Football Championship trophy? Dublin have been utterly dominant in this competition as of late, having won the last 11 editions, so do the bookies think that this dominance will carry on? Or will Kildare get revenge for their heart-breaking defeat in the final to Dublin in 2021 and pick up their first Leinster Senior Football Championship since 2000?

Well, have a look at the following table, and you will see what odds are being offered by some of the top sportsbooks that Irish Gaelic football betting fans can open an account with at this moment in time.

Team
Dublin	1.14	1.12	1.12	1.13	1.14	1.14
Kildare	6.00	5.50	6.00	5.50	5.50	5.500

As can be seen from the table above, Dublin are the outright favourites to go on and lift this title once more. If they manage to do so, then it will be their 61st win. When you see the dominance that they have had down the years, it really is no surprise to see them as clear favourites to win.
