It feels like it won't be long until someone scores a goal here.

Jordan Stewart shows some neat footwork before crossing to the back post where Ross Clarke rises highest and powers a header just over Chris Johns' crossbar.

It's been a real end-to-end game so far with both teams not afraid to go forward with intent.

Glenavon’s Peter Campbell strikes a long-range effort and Aaron McCarey had to get down fast to prevent the ball from entering the net, and the ball is then put behind for a corner.

Campbell takes the corner and McCarey is under real pressure, first from Harry Murphy and then from Christopher Atherton, but Portadown manage to clear the ball.

Cian O’Malley hurls one into the mix from deep on the right, but it's easy work for David Odumosu, who steps off his line and gathers cleanly.

No danger for the Reds keeper there.

Shane Flynn fires in a snap-shot for Ballymena from the left-hand side of the penalty area which forces Nathan Gartside to dive to his left to push the ball away.

Larne starting to find their rhythm now, with Chris Gallagher especially prominent, the midfielder feeding a through ball into Paul O'Neill which the striker failed to capitalise on.

They may be without a win in five, but Glentoran look up for this one this evening.

Danny Amos threatening regularly down the left-hand side. Coleraine need some possession to stop the tide of green.

Josh Carson has the first effort of the game for Ballymena but the ball bobbles on the rutted surface as he strikes it and it goes well off-target.

Daniel Larmour forces Chris Johns into a smart stop as he unleashes a fierce strike from distance with his right foot.

A brief spell of Crusaders attacking play is eventually thwarted and the Blues clear their lines.

Shay McCartan whips in a corner for Portadown and it’s cleared but only as far as Ben Wylie, who aims for the top corner with a nice effort on the edge of the box, but the ball goes just over the crossbar.

A brief break in play as Shaun Want and Brandon Bermingham receive treatment following an aerial clash.

Thankfully, both are fit to continue.

With their first attack, Portadown draw a good save out of Mark Byrne following a long-range effort by Josh Ukek.

Seanan Clucas bites into the challenge and pinches it off Arran Pettifer in midfield.

A sharp through ball releases Danny Gibson - but Jack Keaney recovers brilliantly to throw himself in the way.

I'm really surprised to see the Swifts make so many changes, but it gives the four or five guys coming in an opportunity to play against the former league champions and secure their place in the Irish Cup final team.

Almost an early goal for the Blues.

Chris McKee tees up Kieran Offord in a central area who fires just wide of the left-hand upright.

The Swifts quickly into their stride in the opening minutes, dominating possession against their high pressing opponents.

Ronan Doherty gets us underway at the Oval.
