Both teams come into this game on the back of a defeat last time out.

However, while Linfield, who secured the league title several weeks ago, will lose little sleep over their loss at Larne the same can't be said for their hosts today.

Coleraine have lost critical momentum as they approach the European play-offs and went down heavily to Crusaders last time out.

Head coach Dean Shiels makes two changes to his side from Seaview as captain Lyndon Kane is out for the season with a broken collarbone and Rory Brown starts on the bench.

In their place come Max Little between the sticks and defender Kyle McClelland.

Blues boss David Healy makes no less than seven changes with Sam Roscoe, Kieran Offord, Dane McCullough and Rhys Annett listed among the replacements and Chris Shields, Kalum Thompson and Matthew Orr getting the afternoon off.

Into the starting XI come Euan East, Scot Whiteside, Kirk Millar, Ben Hall, Joshua Archer, Matthew Fitzpatrick and Callumn Morrison.

Coleraine: Little, Jarvis, Boyle, Campbell, Shevlin, Burns, McClelland, Glackin (c), Doherty, Dunne, McManus.

Subs: Brown, Stewart, Scott, Spence, McGonigle, Tejada, Devine.

Linfield: Walsh, East, Whiteside, Millar, Allen, Hall, Archer, Mulgrew (c), McGee, Fitzpatrick, Morrison.

Subs: Roscoe, Ballantyne, McKee, Offord, McCullough, Annett, McKay.

How is it not a third for Glenavon!

A superb square ball from David Toure sets up Aaron Heaney, who dummies a shot that fools the Carrick keeper and defender, he then looks up to see an empty goal from 12-yards out but hits his shot wide of the target.

The answer is no and in a moment of confusion, home fans believed referee Mark Dillon had pointed to the spot for a penalty to Carrick.

But there are sighs galore when they realise he was in fact pointing for a goal-kick to Glenavon.

Two corners in a row now for the home side. Can they make this one count?
