Cork City no longer play in the Premier Division. This page keeps their last full season there — 36 league games in 2025-26 — because the record is still the best guide to how their matches ran. Nothing below is from the current campaign.
Cork City went over 2.5 goals in 17 of 36 league games that season (47%) — 33% at home, 61% away. They scored 33 and conceded 61, so their matches averaged 2.61 goals, and both teams scored in 67% of them. Record: 4-12-20 in the Premier Division.

That ranks them 0th of 10 for goals in their matches, 0th for scoring (0.92 a game) and 0th for goals conceded (1.69). They've kept 4 clean sheets and failed to score 10 times in 36 games — the goals dry up more often than the back line holds.
Across 36 matches with half-time data, 57% of the goals in their games have come after the break (40 before, 54 after). Cork City themselves have scored 11 in first halves and 22 in second — a distinctly second-half team.

Home/away splits are small samples — our 30,582-match study found ~94% of such gaps are indistinguishable from chance, which is why the app's ratings pool them rather than trusting the split.
Their most common result this season is 1–1 (9 times). Biggest win: 2–0 at home to Waterford (Fri 29 Aug). Heaviest defeat: 0–4 away at St Patrick's Athl.. 5 of their 36 games have produced five goals or more. Current run: 3 straight matches under 2.5 goals.
Streaks read louder than they predict: our break study found a three-game goals run carries roughly ±4.6 points of signal — real, but small, and it resets entirely after a long lay-off.
In 36 league games last season Cork City's matches went over 2.5 goals 47% of the time. This season is tracking it closely at 47% — consistent goal patterns across two campaigns.
