Glentoran FC vs Glenavon FC Prediction: The Glens are at it again

The Glens will clash again at the Oval for their outstanding round 32 game in the Northern Ireland Premier League. Glentoran continues to fight for a top 2 place in the Northern Ireland Premier League, while Glenavon will fight for their place next season in the relegation playoff zone. The last time they met, the game ended in a 0-3 victory, and we also expect a similar result at the Oval on Wednesday. Let’s analyze both teams’ forms,their  key stats, and my expert opinion. 

Glentoran FC (2nd)

Form in the League: WLDWW

Glentoran is now second placed in the league with a 19 points margin between them and the league leaders Linfield. As the regular season nears its conclusion, Glentoran is well-prepared and positioned for the next phase which is the Championship phase. However, they bounced back to winning ways with a 1-0 victory against Ballymena United in their last league game. We are familiar with Glentoran's style of play which is very offensive and I believe they’ll go all out for goals against their neighbors Glenavon. 

They are currently in second place on the league table, with overall league statistics of 15 wins, 6 draws, and 8 losses from the 29 league games played. Nathaniel Ferris is Glentoran's man in front of goal, with 7 goals to his name this season.

Glenavon FC (10th)

Form in the League: LWLDW

Glenavon remains 10th placed in the league and with the look of things they’ll have to fight for a place next season in the relegation playoff zone. They lost to Coleraine in their last league game with a 0-1 defeat. I think Glenavons fate is seared and they’ll have to fight for their place next season in the relegation playoff zone but let’s see how the next few weeks unfold. They are currently in 10th place in the league table with 10 wins, 8 losses, and 12 draws from the 30 games played.
