Good evening from the SSE Arena where the back-to-back defending Challenge Cup champions welcome the Coventry Blaze to Belfast for this quarter-final second leg clash.

The first leg finished 1-1 at the SkyDome Arena last week meaning the tie is finely poised and tonight is as good as a one-off game.

The Giants come off a 4-point weekend but were made to work hard for both wins here by the Manchester Storm. However, Adam Keefe will be pleased with his side's resilience and he will be looking for more of that this evening.

The visitors come into this in fine form having not lost any of their last eight and sit third in the league standings. They too won a double-header at the weekend over the Glasgow Clan and were taken into overtime on both occasions.

The Giants have won four of the last five editions of this competition while Coventry have not won it since 2007.

A place in the last four of the Challenge Cup awaits tonight's victors and we will keep you abreast of all the action!
