Ireland v USA – Shane Long is 7/1 Betting Odds to Score First

Republic of Ireland suffered a hard-fought defeat in a high-profile Euro 2016 qualifier against Scotland at the weekend and Martin O’Neill’s charges will now be determined to make amends by defeating USA in an international friendly.

Team USA arrive in Dublin severely weakened as four players were allowed to return home due to their MLS play-off commitments and there are no doubts they face an uphill task against very good Ireland side.

With Robbie Keane also released from the squad, Southampton striker Shane Long should continue up front, and with the former WBA star in very good form at the moment, you should know Ladbrokes has enhanced the price on Shane Long to score the first goal from 6/1 to 7/1.
