Glentoran and Ballymena United meet at The Oval, Belfast on Saturday, Oct 24 at 4:00 PM with both clubs firmly in the mix for the European places in the Premiership. Just 2 points separate them in the standings.
Glentoran come into this fixture in good form (3W 1D 1L recently). Ballymena United travel in mixed form (2W 2D 1L), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.
History strongly favours Glentoran here — they've won 8 of 10 previous meetings against Ballymena United, with 1 draws. Their last encounter ended in Ballymena United won 0–2.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Glentoran a slight edge, but Ballymena United are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
