    Crusaders 0-1 Coleraine

    Enterprising corner kick routine from Coleraine sees Will Patching ping the ball towards Lewis McGregor, loitering with intent on the edge of the Crusaders penalty area.

    McGregor takes a touch to control the ball, allowing a covering defender time to get out and block.

  3. YELLOW CARDpublished at 15:29 BST 6 September

    Linfield 0-0 Portadown

    First card of the day goes to Linfield's Chris Shields.

    Portadown threaten with a counter attack and Shields quickly brings that to an end by pulling the shirt of James Teelan.

    A decision the Linfield captain can have no complaints about.

    Carrick Rangers 0-1 Cliftonville

    Brandon Bermingham's curling free-kick is gathered by Nathan Gartside.

    I am sure Bermingham would like to be on the scoresheet of his first league game for the Reds!

    Bangor 0-0 Larne

    The visitors enjoy plenty of possession, moving the ball patiently across midfield, but Gareth Deane remains a spectator in the Bangor goal with little to trouble him so far.

    If you're Lee Feeney, you'll be delighted by how your defence has marshalled the visitors' attack.

    Carrick Rangers 0-1 Cliftonville

    PJ Morrison gets down low to gather Danny Gibson's shot from a tight angle.

    Gibson had done well to find space there on the left wing.

    Linfield 0-0 Portadown

    Linfield up the ante and a delightful flick from Matthew Fitzpatrick finds Kieran Offord in acres of space.

    Offord delivers a delicate ball into the six-yard box but unfortunately there are no blue shirts there to meet it and Portadown clear through Lewis MacKinnon.

  9. RED CARDpublished at 15:25 BST 6 September

    Glenavon 0-1 Dungannon Swifts

    Harry Murphy is off for a second bookable offence.

    The second card is for an obvious foul on a Dungannon attacker, who was on his way into the Glenavon box.

    Few complaints from his teammates.

  10. Postpublished at 15:24 BST 6 September

    Carrick Rangers 0-1 Cliftonville

    Micheal Glynn's corner is a tad heavy but is headed back into a dangerous area by the unmarked Jack Keaney for Harry Wilson.

    However, Wilson nods wide.

  11. Postpublished at 15:24 BST 6 September

    Ballymena United 0-2 Glentoran

    Ballymena break quickly with Jack O'Reilly playing in Joel Thompson on the left hand side and his fierce shot stings the palms of Andrew Mills.

  12. Watch: Hale tucks home Reds' openerpublished at 15:24 BST 6 September

    Carrick Rangers 0-1 Cliftonville

    Rory Hale keeps a cool head to finish beyond Nathan Gartside and open the scoring for Cliftonville.

    Glenavon 0-1 Dungannon Swifts

    Dungannon are playing smartly today, passing the ball around well.

    They almost get on the scoreboard once more when Junior is played down the left by Kaelan Dillon, then he crosses into the centre but Glenavon just clear the ball before Leo Alves can convert.

    Bangor 0-0 Larne

    Another injury scare as Tiarnan Mulvenna collides heavily with Sean Graham in midfield.

    The former Ballymena United man hobbles towards the sideline, but after a quick check, it seems he will be able to continue.

  16. Postpublished at 15:21 BST 6 September

    Carrick Rangers 0-1 Cliftonville

    It was an even stat to the match here but, ever since their opening goal, it has been Cliftonville who have edged the possession stats.

    Can Carrick respond?

    GOAL - Crusaders 0-1 Colerainepublished at 15:21 BST 6 September

    Joel Cooper (20 mins)

    It has been coming.

    Coleraine take the lead through Joel Cooper with a tremendous left foot finish from 12 yards.

    Jamie Glackin does brilliantly to keep the ball alive down Coleraine's left before delivering a low ball into the penalty area.

    Dylan Boyle shows great awareness to dummy the ball, allowing Joel Cooper to fire home off the crossbar for his second goal of the season.

  18. Postpublished at 15:21 BST 6 September

    Ballymena United 0-2 Glentoran

    Ben Kennedy fizzes in a low free kick which Stephen O'Donnell comes close to getting on the end of.

    Ballymena quickly need a way back into this game.

  19. YELLOW CARDpublished at 15:19 BST 6 September

    Ballymena United 0-2 Glentoran

    Glentoran's Ryan Cooney is cautioned for a late challenge on Jack O'Reilly.

  20. Postpublished at 15:18 BST 6 September

    Crusaders 0-0 Coleraine

    Johnny Tuffey is a busy man in the opening quarter of an hour.

    Twice he has reacted instinctively to prevent Coleraine from taking the lead.

    First, he turns away Cameron Stewart's header before getting up to palm away Levi Ives' effort.
