Coleraine welcome Linfield at The Showgrounds, Coleraine on Friday, Sep 25 at 8:45 PM in a Premiership fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 1 point split them in the table.
Coleraine come into this fixture in mixed form (1W 1D 0L). Linfield travel in mixed form (1W 0D 1L), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.
History strongly favours Coleraine here — they've won 5 of 10 previous meetings against Linfield, with 3 draws. Their last encounter ended in Linfield won 0–3. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 2.8 per game in recent meetings.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Coleraine a slight edge, but Linfield are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
