Portadown host Linfield at Shamrock Park, Portadown on Tuesday, Sep 15 at 8:45 PM in the Premiership.
Portadown come into this fixture out of form (0W 2L recently). Linfield, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (1W 0D 1L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks. Portadown head into this on the back of a defeat, while Linfield arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.
Despite playing at home, Portadown face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Linfield have won 8 of 10 encounters, with 1 draws. Their last encounter ended in Portadown won 1–3. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.2 per game in recent meetings.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Portadown a slight edge, but Linfield are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
