📏 Form Guide
Larne WLWDWW
Larne will be looking for a repeat result of the 3-0 Premiership victory vs Portadown.
For Larne, goals were scored by Mark Randall (52', 55') and Tiarnan O'Connor (58').
An interesting characteristic of recent Larne games is seeing a zero in the scoreline.
From their prior 6 clashes leading up to this one, in as many as 5 of them a wager on "Both Teams to Score" would have been a loser. That sort of pattern isn’t assured to be sustained here, of course.
Coming into this contest, Larne are unbeaten in their last 10 home league matches. A very good run at home.
Glenavon LWLLWL
Following on from tasting defeat last time out to Crusaders in Premiership competition, Glenavon and their travelling fans will hope for a better result here.
The only scorer from Glenavon was Kyle McClelland (75'). Fraser Bryden (32', 33', 71', 82') scored for Crusaders.
The numbers tell their own story, and Glenavon have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 matches, seeing opposing sides hit 14 goals overall. In defence, Glenavon have clearly had some problems.
Going into this contest, Glenavon are without an away win for the past 9 league matches. A poor run.

📋 Team News: Larne
Andy Ryan (Knee injury) and Cian Bolger (Knock) will not be taking part for Larne manager Gary Haveron.
📰 Team News: Glenavon
Thanks to a mainly full-strength squad, there’s only a single fitness problem for the Glenavon manager Michael O'Connor to contend with. Jacob Carney (Broken hand) won’t be in action.
🧠 Prediction
It certainly seems that Glenavon may well find it hard to find the back of the net against a Larne lineup who certainly have the ability to dominate this match.
We’re tipping a comprehensive 3-0 victory for Larne at the end of this one.
