Here is how Brian Healy fired Cliftonville ahead at Solitude with an emphatic finish.

A fairly lengthy delay at Clandeboye Park due to an injury to Bangor's Iestyn Hughes but happily the Welshman is able to continue.

Glenavon make a bright start, pinning Bangor inside their own penalty area and debutant Seasiders goalkeeper Lee Axworthy has already had to punch clear twice from dangerous situations.

Rory Hale clips a cross toward the back post for Joe Sheridan, but the delivery was just overhit and the ball sails out for a goal kick.

Who will have the bragging rights of north Belfast at full-time?

Let's find out.

Referee Shane McGonigle starts the action at a wet and dreary Clandeboye Park.

A final look ahead to Saturday's line-up.

Bangor v Glenavon and Cliftonville v Crusaders kick off shortly at 15:00.

Portadown v Dungannon Swifts is a 17:30 kick off, while the 'Big Two' derby has a 18:00 start.

Crusaders boss Declan Caddell said his side "have to be a hell of a lot better" against north Belfast rivals Cliftonville than they were against Ballymena United on Tuesday.

The Crues fell to a 2-0 defeat against the Sky Blues, which leaves them 11th in the table, three points behind Oran Kearney's side in the race to avoid the relegation play-off place.

Caddell hopes his side can produce a markedly improved performance and take home a big three points against the Reds, who they beat at Solitude on Boxing Day.

"After Tuesday's performance any game is the perfect game to respond, it couldn't get any worse than that performance," he told BBC Sport NI.

"Throughout the season we have played well against a lot of teams and Cliftonville are a good, well-organised side that can cause you problems, so have to be a hell of a lot better than we were on Tuesday to get anything out of the game."

Tuesday's Irish Premiership match between Portadown and Cliftonville at Shamrock Park was abandoned due to floodlight failure.

It had been an entertaining start to the game and the away side led through Joe O'Toole's stunning strike.

However, in the 41st minute, the floodlights failed at Shamrock Park.

After discussions, the players were then taken off the pitch while they attempted to fix the issue but efforts proved unsuccessful.

This is the second time this campaign that the side have had issues with their floodlights after the second half of their Boxing Day derby against Glenavon was delayed by 15 minutes after an issue with the oil filter.

Last season, Glentoran's match against Larne at the Oval was postponed following floodlight failure early in the second half with this match replayed in full at a later date.

Watch highlights from Glentoran's 5-0 Irish Cup sixth round win over amateur league side Drumaness Mills at the Oval on Tuesday night.

The Glens will now take on Larne in the quarter-finals.

Linfield manager David Healy says his side will not give up their defence of the Irish Premiership without a fight after Tuesday's 4-1 win at Dungannon Swifts.

Gael Bigirimana cancelled out Matthew Fitzpatrick's opener but Isaac Baird's double and Kyle McClean's goal gave Linfield a comfortable win.

Healy's side are third in the table and are eight points off leaders Larne with 10 matches remaining.

"It's unlikely, but not impossible. We have a lot of work to do but we've put ourselves in this position," Healy told BBC Sport NI.

"There are three other very good teams who have all invested incredibly well over the past number of months.

"Larne have responded when a lot of people probably thought they were going to go away after winning the league, and us last year.

"Credit to the teams and managers, they have put squads together who are not only capable of challenging but putting themselves in with a chance of success."

Despite a surprise Irish Cup exit at the hands of Championship frontrunners Limavady United, Linfield are now unbeaten in eight matches in the league.

Healy also had praise for midfielder Baird, who assisted Fitzpatrick's opener before his double.

"There has been a lot of questions and challenges over the last while, and the players have responded, but it's important that we go and back this up going forward.

"In the past few weeks Isaac has been given a more free role in attacking midfield. He scored a couple of scruffy goals, which are key and they break the defiance of the opposition."

Coleraine manager Ruaidhri Higgins said he was "just delighted to get the three points" as his side closed in on leaders Larne thanks to their 1-0 victory over Ballymena United on Friday night.

Will Patching's first half goal was enough to see his side claim victory at the Showgrounds as Larne fell to a defeat at home to Carrick Rangers which leaves Higgins' side just two points adrift.

However, the Bannsiders' boss said events at Inver Park were "irrelevant" unless his team got he job done and was delighted they dug out the win.

"The main thing tonight was the result," Higgins told BBC Sport NI.

"In the first half, I thought we were really good, played how we wanted the game to go. We had dominance and had them on the back foot, but in the second half we got a big cagey and maybe lost our composure for parts.

"We've limited them to just two chances in the game and without being brilliant in the second half, we've dug out a 1-0 win.

"In the early part of the season, maybe we wouldn't have won it, but have shown a good side to us tonight."

The win was made a little sweeter for Coleraine fans following defeat by their rivals on 26 December.

Higgins paid tribute to the support for helping his side get over the line and also his players, whose recent run of form has them within striking distance of the leaders.

"Winning at home to Ballymena was really important to us after Boxing Day," he continued.

"Our supporters were fantastic tonight and it shows the potential of this club. If we get that on a fortnightly basis when we are at home, it can be a really special place.

"That's out 12th home win in 15 which is some return and we've taken 16 (points) from our last 18 available, so the players deserve so much credit and we are sticking in there, so we will move on to Dungannon."

Watch highlights as Will Patching's goal is enough to see Coleraine defeat Ballymena United 1-0 at the Showgrounds on Friday night.
