Parlay: Waterford FC VS Derry City 2025-07-04

Same-Game Parlay Pick: Derry City to Win, Cover Spread, and Over 2.5 Goals
Bookmaker: Bovada
Match: Derry City vs. Waterford FC (July 4, 2025)

Legs & Odds:
1. Derry City to Win (H2H): +55% (1.55)
2. Derry City to Cover -1.0 Spread: +91% (1.91)
3. Over 2.5 Goals: +93% (1.93)

Combined Implied Probability:
- Derry win: ~64.5%
- Derry covers -1.0 spread: ~52.4%
- Over 2.5 goals: ~51.8%
Total implied probability: ~17.3% (1 in 5.73 chance)

Parlay Odds: +473 (5.73)
Potential Payout: A $100 bet yields $573 (risk: $100).

Why This Works:
- Derry City is a strong home favorite (1.55) with a -1.0 spread, implying they’re expected to win by 1+ goals.
- The Over 2.5 line at 1.93 is competitive, as Derry’s attacking edge and Waterford’s leaky defense (per context) suggest a high-scoring game.
- All legs are from Bovada, ensuring same-bookmaker compliance.

Risk Note: If Derry wins 2-0, the Over 2.5 leg fails. But a 3-0 or 2-1 Derry win satisfies all three legs.

Alternative (Simpler) Parlay:
- Derry City to Win (+55%) and Over 2.5 Goals (+93%)
- Odds: 1.55 * 1.93 = 3.0 (+200)
- Payout: $300 for $100.

Verdict: The three-leg parlay offers higher reward but requires a 3+ goal game. If you’re bullish on Derry’s dominance, go for the 473% shot. If not, the two-leg version is safer.
