Coleraine FC vs Glenavon FC Prediction: Glenavon has not won a game this season

Coleraine will welcome Glenavon to The Showgrounds for the 4th round of the Northern Ireland league game. Glenavon has suffered heavy defeats since the start of the season with three consecutive league defeats while Coleraine on the other hand is yet to lose a game. We believe both teams will come all out for goals here and our prediction is with the goals option. Please see the carefully prepared tips.

Form: DWD

Matthew Shevlin saved Coleraine in their 1-1 draw season opener against Dungannon Swifts as he scored the equalizer in the 81st minute of the game to salvage a point for them. In their second and most recent league game against Ballymena United, Coleraine got a phenomenal 4-2 victory with Matthew Shevlin also finding the net. However, in their third and most recent league game against Glentoran, the game ended in a goalless draw as both teams couldn’t find the breakthrough on goal. Coleraine is now 4th placed in the league with a win and 2 draws from three games played. 

Form: LLL

What a bad league start for Glenavon as they’ve now lost three consecutive league games. They lost woefully to Carrick Rangers in their league opener. Glenavon was outclassed in that game as they only had two shots on target with one of those shots hitting the woodwork. Their second game of the season against Cliftonville also ended in a defeat but this time around they managed to pull one back as the game ended in a 1-2 defeat. In their 3rd league game against Linfield, they couldn’t match up to Linfield’s power and strength and they were annihilated in that game with a 0-3 defeat. They take on Coleraine and the odds are highly stacked against them considering their current poor form. 

It’s always a tough encounter whenever these teams meet as their last 20 meetings produced 6 wins for Coleraine, 6 wins for Glenavon, and 8 draws.

Glenavon is in poor form and they are without in the league this season, Coleraine on the other hand is the direct opposite as they haven’t lost a game. We foresee a very tough one with Coleraine still maintaining their unbeaten league record. A win or draw and a total of over 1.5 goals is a great betting choice. We see a pattern in their last 5 meetings and it’s both teams finding the net, they’ve both scored in 4 of their last 5 encounters and we can expect the same at the Showgrounds on Saturday.
