Carrick Rangers 0-0 Linfield
Jamie Mulgrew crosses into a dangerous area, with Matthew Fitzpatrick rising highest to get his head on it.
His attacking header is blocked by Luke McCullough and goes behind for a corner, which comes to nothing.
Glentoran 0-1 Larne
The home fans believe they should have a penalty after Pat Hoban's shot appears to hit the hand of Ryan Nolan.
However, Tony Clarke waves away the appeals. Definitely one to watch back.
Glentoran 0-1 Larne
Paul O'Neill keeps his cool from the spot to score the opener against his former side.
Watch: Paul O'Neill gives Larne the lead.
Glenavon 0-0 Newington
Paul McGovern and Charlie Lindsay link up well but the latter's cross is too high for Barney McKeown at the back post.
Ballymena United 1-1 Cliftonville
Cliftonville's Joe Sheridan picks up the first yellow card of the evening as he initially knocks the ball too far in front of himself with a heavy touch and then awkwardly fouls Danny Lafferty.
Glentoran 0-1 Larne
Jordan Jenkins bursts into the box and fires just over the crossbar.
The Glens have settled into the game in the last few minutes and have been asking more questions of the Larne defence.
Portadown 1-0 Annagh United
A shaky moment at the back as hesitation from Divin Isamala lets Jude Johnson nip in-behind, but Aaron McCarey bails the defender out with a smart low stop from an outstretched boot.
Ballymena United 1-1 Cliftonville
A debut goal from Igor Rutkowski as his spot kick squeezes in despite PJ Morrison getting a strong hand to it.
Watch: Igor Rutkowski scores a penalty for the Sky Blues to make it 1-0
Keevan Hawthorne (15 mins)
The Reds are level after a quarter of an hour as Adebayo Fapetu crosses from the right and Keevan Hawthorne arrives at the back post to beat Sean O'Neill with a stooping header at the keeper's near post.
No clean sheet for O'Neill on his Irish League farewell.
Jack Scott (14 mins)
Steven McCullough delivers a pinpoint cross to the back post, and Jack Scott powers home a header just nine minutes into his Portadown debut.
Warrenpoint Town v Lisburn Distillery
It's an 8pm kick-off at Milltown. Off we go.
Carrick Rangers 0-0 Linfield
A swift Carrick Rangers counter attack is thwarted by Matthew Fitzpatrick, who does well in a defensive area to stop Danny Gibson from getting a shot away.
Glenavon 0-0 Newington
The home fans scream for offside as Jay Donnelly gets in behind. The flag isn't forthcoming but Donnelly shanks his effort off the roof of the stand anyway.
Carrick Rangers 0-0 Linfield
Billy Joe Burns does well to block Euan East's header from a dangerous Linfield free-kick, stopping the defender from getting proper contact on it.
The subsequent corner falls to Matthew Fitzpatrick, who strikes with his left foot, which Scott Pengelly saves routinely.
All Linfield so far.
Portadown 0-0 Annagh United
Steven McCullough whips the free-kick over the wall, but it whistles just wide of the far post. Decent effort from the full-back, who had keeper Joel Little worried.
Glenavon 0-0 Newington
The first real chance of the game goes the way of the hosts as Paul McGovern picks out Ben Wilson at the back post.
He meets it on the volley but can't keep it on target as it whistles past Rian Brown's post.
Portadown 0-0 Annagh United
Ciaran McGurgan goes into Mark Dillon’s book for something said in the aftermath of that free-kick award. The Annagh boss won’t be happy, and now he’s walking a tightrope on the touchline.
Paul O'Neill (7 mins)
Paul O'Neill makes no mistake and breaks the deadlock!
The forward sends a strong strike into the bottom left corner with Andrew Mills diving the wrong way.
Gary Haveron will be delighted with how his side have started this game.
Portadown 0-0 Annagh United
Free-kick in a dangerous spot for the Ports after a high boot catches Luke Wilson.
Steven McCullough stands over it, looking poised to deliver with that left foot of his.
Glentoran 0-0 Larne

Paul O'Neill steps up to take it...
