Glens prepare to Finnish opponents off
Glentoran were taking part in their first light training session before Wednesday night's important return leg Champions League fixture against HJK Helsinki in Finland.
The Irish League champions need only a score draw to progress through to the next round of the competition, the first local side to do so since Linfield in 1993.
Lat week's 0-0 draw with the Finns in Belfast mean Roy Coyle's men have every chance of securing that Second Qualifying round tie against Hungarian opposition.
The east Belfast side go into the game without captain Chris Walker who suffered a head injury in last week's game while there is concern over Northern Ireland international striker Andy Smith who has a slight hamstring worry.
Paul Leeman will captain Glentoran in Walker's absence.
