Ballymena United welcome Larne at Ballymena Showgrounds, Ballymena on Saturday, Aug 29 at 7:00 PM in a Premiership fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 2 points split them in the table.
Ballymena United come into this fixture out of form (1W 2L recently). Larne travel in mixed form (0W 1D 0L), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.
Despite playing at home, Ballymena United face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Larne have won 7 of 10 encounters, with 1 draws. Their last encounter ended in Larne won 2–0.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Ballymena United a slight edge, but Larne are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
