Glenavon have come out in the second half with real intent and look threatening going forward.

So far Paddy McLaughlin's side have somewhat pinned the Blues back with Linfield sitting quite deep.

Danny Amos steps up with a free-kick from 25 yards, but his curling effort is turned behind by David Odumosu, and the Reds eventually clear the resulting corner.

It's been a brighter start to the second half from Declan Devine's men.

Nathaniel Ferris slips a clever pass into the path of Conor McCloskey but the winger is struggling to keep his balance and he slides his effort straight at Ballymena keeper Sean O'Neill.

Crusaders come incredibly close to opening the scoring via Jordan Stewart.

The away side have been launching long throw-ins into the box throughout, and this time the throw-in lands at Stewart’s feet but he crashes his effort off the crossbar.

The ball then comes to Ross Clarke but Aaron McCarey stands tall and pulls off the save.

Stephen Fallon whips the ball in from the right with Matthew Fitzpatrick getting his head on it in the box, but his effort is just wide of the near upright.

Up the other end Ben Hall's misplaced pass falls into the path of David Toure, whose strike is blocked by Ethan McGee.

Lively second half so far.

Kodi-Lyons Foster rises highest at the back post to head Danny Amos' cross goalward, but the defender fails to hit the target.

The most bizarre goal you are likely to see today and an early Christmas gift for Daniel Gyollai.

Good skill from Jordan Stewart to manufacture the space to shoot, but his shot is right down Aaron McCarey’s throat.

We're back underway with the same 22 players who finished the first half.

We're back underway for the second half at Windsor Park.

Can Glenavon turn this one around in south Belfast, or will the Blues secure all three points?

The visitors get the second half underway. No changes from either side.

That Calvin McCurry goal is the final action of an often chaotic opening period at Lakeview Park.

The Glens pull a goal back with virtually the last kick of the half from their goalkeeper to cancel out Joe Gormley's 15th league goal of the season in a half where Cliftonville edged proceedings.

All to play for in an intriguing second half coming up.

Linfield go in at the break a goal to the good at Windsor Park.

Chris McKee's header after 11 minutes is the difference at half-time, with the Blues deservedly in front.

That being said, Glenavon look dangerous on the counter-attack and have scored six goals in their last two games.

This one isn't over by any stretch!

Not much in the way of goalmouth action at Shamrock Park between Portadown and Crusaders.

Crusaders had the best of the opening minutes and Jordan Forsythe came close with a header from a corner.

Forsythe also came close to grabbing the opening goal with a well struck free-kick that cannoned off the bottom of the post.

Portadown grew into the game as the half wore on though, with Ahu Obhakhan getting into good spaces on several occasions but just lacking the finish.

Josh Ukek also came close with a header which turned out to be the last action of the first half.

Huge appeals for a penalty from Ballymena as Nathan Gartside attempts to punch a free kick clear but appears to collide with Ballymena's Stephen O'Donnell but referee Evan Boyce again sees nothing untoward.
