Kyle Spence does well to win a second corner for Coleraine.

Jack Hastings becomes the first player in referee Steven Gregg's book as he fouls Alberto Balde.

Matthew Orr has to be assured with his header back to his goalkeeper David Walsh with Coleraine's Matthew Shevlin lurking - and he is.

Linfield enjoying plenty of possession but the visitors looking dangerous on the counter.

Ballymena break quickly after clearing a Portadown free-kick, but Kian Corbally can't get the ball under control and his daisy-cutter of a shot trundles harmlessly through to Aaron McCarey.

Tiarnan O'Connor finds space to deliver from the flank but puts too much weight on his cross.

Linfield making ground down their left but defended well by the visitors.

Glenavon fans not happy in the slightest. David McDaid was fouled on the edge of the area but the fans are certain the foul happened inside the box.

The ref stands his ground though and gives a free-kick to Glenavon right on the edge of the area.

Niall Quinn takes the resultant free, right in the middle of the goalframe, and it crashes off the crossbar.

Ethan Boyle does well to find Kyle Cherry on the left flank with his delivery causing a scramble in the box, but Nathan Gartside is able to thwart the danger.

Ten minutes to go until the break.

Ballymena are ahead at home to Portadown and it's thanks to this corker from James Hood!

Ballymena's Aaron Jarvis is booked for a late challenge on Shay McCartan in midfield.

As straightforward a decision as referee Declan Hassan will have to make all day.

Crusaders come very close from a well-taken Jarlath O’Rourke corner which found Phillip Lowry at the neat post by Lowry’s effort is diverted just wide and behind for another corner, which comes to nothing.

Ryan Waide's strike proves an easy save for Jack McIntyre.

Loughgall push forward again shortly after and now have a corner.

The first goal of today's Irish Premiership fixtures came at Windsor Park and it went to Coleraine's Connor Murray.

Here it is!

Approaching the half hour at Windsor Park where Coleraine continue to hold a 1-0 lead.

And what a fine goal it was, too, from Scot Connor Murray.

Exchanging passes with Kyle Spence he flashed a low left shot past David Walsh and into the bottom far corner of the goal.

What have the Blues got in response?

There's a pause in proceedings as Sean Graham receives treatment on the pitch. The former Ballymena United man should be able to continue.

Carrick Rangers 0-0 Loughgall

Ethan Boyle and Ryan Waide clash and now Boyle looks like he might not be able to continue.

Three substitutions in five minutes certainly wouldn't be ideal for Stephen Baxter.

Tiernan O'Connor delivers an inviting low cross that finds Olatunde Bayode, who cleverly loses his marker inside the box.

But after doing the hard work, Bayode can only produce a tame effort straight at Declan Dunne from eight yards - a real let-off for the visitors.

Deserved yellow card for Crusaders’ Robert Weir for a poor challenge on David Toure.

Another injury blow for Carrick as Cian O'Malley, who was receiving treatment just before Paul Heatley, has pulled up and also can't continue.

Reece Webb is brought on.

A chance for Linfield to draw level almost immediately but an unmarked Joel Cooper fires his left foot shot high over the crossbar from an angle 15 yards from goal.
