  • Glentoran's defensive solidity stands out — 4 clean sheets in 6 games. If they can keep Ballymena United off the scoresheet, their home support and structure should be enough to grind out a narrow win.

Glentoran host Ballymena United having won four of their last six, drawing one and losing one, scoring eight and conceding just three, with four clean sheets. They have won two of their last three. Ballymena have also been in decent form, winning three of six and scoring nine, but they have conceded 11 in their last six away games, winning only one of them. That defensive record could prove costly at The Oval. Predicted score: Glentoran 1-0 Ballymena United.
