The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Glentoran U20 are in the 5th position while the guests worry at 11th.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
Glentoran U20 form and stats
1 victory, 0 draws and 3 defeats. That’s what Glentoran U20 have to build on here at Stadium Rajko Mitic in the Premiership Development League.
Glentoran U20 are returning here after visiting Carrick Rangers U20 in a Premiership Development League game and winning with a 3-0 scoreline. A defeat was the result before that one, 0-5 away at Cliftonville U20.
Glentoran U20 have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Stadium Rajko Mitic with 7 goals in 4 league matches. Glentoran U20 have allowed more than three conceded goals on average in their home matches so far.
Larne U20 form and stats
1-1-2 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Larne U20, who have the fewest scored goals (9) in Premiership Development League, in their Premiership Development League matches away. With the Larne U20 losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking. Larne U20 seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?
Larne U20 failed to get anything from their last game, a Premiership Development League home match vs Cliftonville U20 (placed 1st) that ended with defeat 1-6. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Glenavon U20 wasn't a success with a 1-6 loss.
Larne U20 lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 1-6 beating and focus on this one.
The visitors will be packing their bags again in only three days as another away game awaits: The Premiership Development League trip to Institute U20.
Larne U20 are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 5 away goals from 4 games (in the league). There are big problems for the Larne U20 defense as they have conceded 13 goals in 4 away games.
