After a loss in their previous game against Glentoran in Premiership competition, Ballymena United will be hoping to turn things around here.
Nathaniel Ferris (55') scored for Glentoran.
The stats don’t lie, and Ballymena United have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, with opponents netting 9 goals in total. At the back, Ballymena United just haven’t been too solid at all. That kind of trend might not be carried forward into this next game, of course.
Coming into this contest, Ballymena United have not emerged victorious against Dungannon Swifts when they have played them away from home in the previous 2 league matches.

📋 Team News: Ballymena United
Out of a mainly available group of players, there’s just the lone fitness issue for the Ballymena United boss Jim Ervin to be concerned about. Johnny McMurray (Knee surgery) won’t be playing here.

In this match, Ballymena United will manage to break down this Dungannon Swifts lineup, however that isn’t expected to be enough to avoid a loss.
Our selection here is for a tight encounter finishing with a 2-1 win for Dungannon Swifts at the end of this one. Looking forward to seeing how this one unfolds.
