Loughgall vs Larne Prediction & Preview
Preview
The Northern Ireland Premiership match between Loughgall and Larne is set to take place on Saturday, December 7th at Lakeview Park. The home team, Loughgall, coached by Dean Smith, will be looking to improve their current 12th position in the league with only 12 points. In contrast, Larne, led by coach Nathan Rooney, are sitting in 9th place with 22 points.
Loughgall's recent form has been inconsistent, with one win, three losses, and one draw in their last five matches. Their last game ended in a 2-2 draw against Glentoran at home. Larne, on the other hand, have had a slightly better run, with two wins, one loss, and two draws in their last five games. Their most recent match was a goalless draw away to Annagh United.
The head-to-head record between these teams favors Larne, who have won four out of the last five meetings, including a 2-0 victory when they last played at Inver Park on September 24th, 2024. Loughgall will be looking to turn this around and take advantage of their home ground.
In terms of goalscoring, Loughgall averages 1.43 goals per game, while Larne scores an average of 1.14 goals per match. Defensively, Larne has been more solid, conceding only 0.86 goals per game compared to Loughgall's 2.43.
Bet
Considering the performance and stats for each team, I would recommend a bet on Larne to win away from home. With odds of 1.5, it seems like a relatively safe bet given their recent form and head-to-head record against Loughgall. Additionally, Larne's defensive solidity and ability to score an average of 1.33 goals per game when playing away make them a strong contender for the win.
While the odds for over 2.5 goals are attractive at 1.9, I would caution that Larne's matches tend to have fewer goals, averaging only 2 total goals scored by all teams combined in their games. Therefore, I would stick with the safer option of an away win for Larne.
