After being beaten in their last game against Glentoran in Premiership competition, Portadown and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.

In those clashes, opposing sides have managed a goal tally of 6 while Portadown have scored 5. With no two games being the same, we’ll just have to find out whether the trend will be replicated in this upcoming game.
