Glentoran's European hopes have been dented as Cliftonville scored a late goal to win 1-0, with Shea Gordon and Ryan Curran playing key roles for the Reds. Cliftonville, still smarting from their Irish Cup final loss, were eager to rebound and secure European football once again. The Reds have previously won the play-off final three times and will look to tap into that experience. Glentoran, meanwhile, will feel they should not be in this situation, having spent most of the season in second place. However, a run of just three wins from their last 10 league games saw them overtaken by Larne. Declan Devine's team will be without key players Dylan Connolly, Fuad Sule, and Christie Pattisson, who are suspended. Jordan Jenkins, who scored 12 league goals, will be vital for the Glens. The two teams have met four times this season, with Glentoran winning two of those matches at home. Cliftonville's Jim Magilton will look to lift his side mentally and physically after the Irish Cup final defeat. The Reds will be underdogs, but they have beaten the Glens at Solitude in February and in the BetMcLean League Cup final. Glentoran's home form will be crucial, but they will need to overcome the loss of key players to secure European football. The Glens have won two of the four meetings between the two sides this season, with both of those victories coming at home. Glentoran will look to draw on that experience to secure a win. The match will be a tough test for both teams, but the Glens will be eager to bounce back from their recent run of poor form.
