Northern Ireland results and our prediction record
Northern Ireland have played 36 matches that we predicted before kickoff, the most recent of them in World Cup: Qualification Europe in March 2026.
We called 18 of those 36 correctly on the match result, which is 50%.
Every one of those matches is below, with the pick we made and the final score.
Our record on Northern Ireland
Across every Northern Ireland match we called before kickoff, graded afterwards against the final score. Losing markets are included, and the sample size sits beside every rate.
| Market | Predictions | Correct | Hit rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Match result | 36 | 18 | 50.0% |
| Double chance | 36 | 25 | 69.4% |
| Over or under 2.5 goals | 36 | 19 | 52.8% |
| Over 1.5 goals same call, safer line | 8 | 5 | 5 of 8 too few to quote a rate |
| Under 3.5 goals same call, safer line | 28 | 19 | 67.9% |
The last two rows are not separate predictions. They are the same over or under call read at a line that is easier to clear: a call of over 2.5 goals also clears 1.5, and a call of under 2.5 also stays under 3.5. That is why each of them covers about half the matches, and why they land higher.
How the record changes
One record over 36 matches hides as much as it shows. The same call is a different proposition at home and away, and different again in a league that has seen this side a hundred times against a cup they play four times a year.
With Northern Ireland at home we were right 10 times from 18 matches, and away from home 8 from 18. Neither split is big enough yet to put a rate on.
Northern Ireland appear in 3 of the competitions we cover. The table above splits the record across them, with the sample size beside each one, since several are too small to put a rate on.
At home and away

Each figure carries the number of predictions behind it. The last two markets are the same goals call read where it is easier to clear, so they cover different halves of the same matches.
