Glentoran continue to impress in the league as they’ve only lost a game since the start of the league. They are on a winning streak with two consecutive league wins in their last two league games with their most recent league game against Cliftonville ending in a shocking 1-0 win. Jordan Jenkins’s early 2-minute goal was all that was needed to give Glentoran the win against Cliftonville in their last league game. They are 3rd place on the league table with overall league statistics of 3 wins, a draw, and a loss from the 5 games played. 

Glentoran has always gotten the better of The Swifts. Their last 20 encounters produced 16 wins for Glentoran, 3 wins for Dungannon Swifts, and a draw. 

It’s always a high-scoring affair whenever these teams meet as there has been a total of over 2.5 goals in 4 of their last 5 encounters and we also expect a similar outcome at Stangmore Park on Saturday. There is a heavy record here which is the fact that Glentoran has not lost to Dungannon Swifts in their last 14 encounters and with their recent form they’ll most likely uphold their unbeaten record against The Swifts.
