agreed ,doesnt make sense .

My general rule on this is that if the favourites are 4/7 or bigger in my head, then I make it an even game - if the favs are 1/2 or shorter, then if's fav vs underdog. I do get it wrong on occasion but Kinnitty were 1/3 pre-match for the drawn game with Paddy Power, and that was without the knowledge that Colm Coughlan was back. Also, since the draw, Kinnitty have had two weeks together to work on their problems - six of the Belmont starters spent week one preparing for a football quarter final, and a match that won't have done anything to boost their mood.

I'll be tipping Belmont out of loyalty to my own lads, but there is no way that they aren't underdogs here.
