With the 29th round of the Northern Ireland Premier League approaching, anticipation is building for the highly awaited showdown between Linfield and Coleraine at the Showgrounds. Linfield recently surrendered their top spot in the league to Larne following a disappointing draw against Glenavon in their last match, while Coleraine suffered a heavy defeat to Cliftonville. Expectations are high for a fiercely competitive match, and Linfield will likely respond strongly after their setback. We anticipate a determined performance from them and don't foresee another loss in this upcoming encounter. Let's delve into a detailed analysis with our expert tips to prepare for the game.
Coleraine FC (7th)
Form: LWLLL
Coleraine endured another setback in their recent league fixture against Cliftonville, suffering a 4-1 defeat. This loss marks their fourth defeat in their last five league matches, with only one victory during this period. Their season has been characterized by inconsistency, evident in their record over the past eight league games, where they have suffered seven significant defeats and secured just one win.
In the ongoing league season, Coleraine's performance has been poor, with an overall record of 9 wins, 14 losses, and 5 draws from the 28 games played. Notably, Matthew Shevlin has emerged as a key contributor to the team's goal-scoring efforts, tallying five goals this season.
Linfield FC (2nd)
Form: DLWWW
In their latest league outing against Glenavon, Linfield experienced another frustrating outcome, settling for a 2-2 draw. Despite leading the league twice during the game, they were twice pegged back, resulting in the stalemate. This result has seen them slip from the top of the league table to second place. As they prepare to face Coleraine on Friday, Linfield will be eager to return to winning ways and reclaim their position at the summit of the league.
With an impressive record of 21 wins, three draws, and four losses from 28 league games, Linfield is currently dominating the league. Christian McKee leads the team's goal-scoring efforts with eight goals in the league so far this season.
Head-To-Head Statistics
A critical look at the last 11 games between them produced 7 wins for Linfield, a win for Coleraine, and 3 draws.
Expert Betting Tips
