14:26 BST 19 August 2017Crusaders v Coleraine
Stephen Baxter makes two changes to the side that thumped Warrenpoint on Tuesday. Captain Colin Coates is out due to a hamstring tweak and there's also no Jordan Forsythe, with Sean Ward and Jamie Glackin getting the nod from the Crues boss.
Coleraine are unchanged following their impressive 2-0 victory over Cliftonville.
Both sides have maximum points from their opening two games - this should be a cracker!

14:11 BST 19 August 2017Saturday's Irish Premiership action
We hope you're sitting comfortably. The Irish Premiership season is back and in full swing and it feels like we're being spoiled.
After an exciting opening week which saw no fewer than 49 goals scored across two programmes of matches, we're back and ready for another Saturday afternoon spent watching the drama unfold.
The pick of today's six matches is unquestionably Coleraine's visit to the Shore Road to face Crusaders. Both sides are fresh off impressive victories on Tuesday night, so expect goals at Seaview.
Meanwhile, Cliftonville face a tricky trip to Ballinamallard as Barry Gray looks to bounce back from the defeat to Coleraine. Ballymena United host Glenavon, while champions Linfield are at Stangmore Park to face Dungannon Swifts.
Gary Haveron's Glentoran hope to make it three from three as they welcome their manager's former side Carrick Rangers to The Oval.
Finally, Warrenpoint Town and Ards clash at Milltown with both sides looking for their first points of the season.
Stay with us for all the build-up, action and reaction to what promises to be another exciting day.
