Adam Mullan (Fitness) and Rodney Brown (Knock) arenโt available for Coleraine boss Oran Kearney. Stephen Lowry will not be able to play in this game through being suspended.

From a largely full-strength group, there is just the sole fitness worry for the Cliftonville gaffer Jim Magilton to contend with. Ryan Curran (Groin injury) misses out for this game.

Coleraine may not find it easy to score against this Cliftonville lineup who we reckon will do enough to score at the other end and edge ahead.
We therefore see a very even contest with a 0-1 winning score for Cliftonville after 90 minutes.
Looking forward to this.
