That ranks them 10th of 12 for goals in their matches, 6th for scoring (1.33 a game) and 10th for goals conceded (0.83). They've kept 6 clean sheets and failed to score 1 time in 12 games — a defence that shuts games down more often than the attack goes missing.
Across 12 matches with half-time data, 69% of the goals in their games have come after the break (8 before, 18 after). Glentoran themselves have scored 4 in first halves and 12 in second — a distinctly second-half team.

Home/away splits are small samples — our 30,582-match study found ~94% of such gaps are indistinguishable from chance, which is why the app's ratings pool them rather than trusting the split.
