Six teams will battle it out later for the chance to join Loughgall in the semi-finals of the Irish Cup.

There is an all-Belfast clash at Windsor Park where holders Linfield host Cliftonville.

Reds boss Barry Gray said it was a massive game for them.

“I don’t know how big it is for Linfield – it is a big game for us!,” he said.

“Why it is a big game? Because it is an Irish cup quarter final.”

Coleraine take on Glentoran at the Showgrounds – and Bannsiders boss Oran Kearney believes they have “unfinished business” in the competition

“It’s big for us. Yes, Glentoran have their own agenda – with Ronnie McFall and all that goes with that.

“We have spoken about it and as a club and a group we feel we have unfinished business in the cup.”

Elsewhere, Ballymena are at home to Championship side, Larne.

All of the games kick off at 7.45.
