The first of the Bet McLean league Cup semi-finals takes place tonight (7.45) when Dungannon Swifts take on Crusaders at Stangmore Park.

The second semi will be held next Tuesday when Ballymena face Cliftonville at the Showgrounds (7.45 k.o.)

With the Crues in cup action, Coleraine have a gilt-edged chance to go top of the Danske Bank Premiership.

They meet Linfield at the Showgrounds.

Blues boss David Healy is under no illusions about meeting one of the league’s in-form sides.

“Tough game to play in,” he told Downtown & Cool FM.

“But it is a good game to go and test yourself against one of the better teams in the country. We will need to be prepared and ready. They are a good side.
