Linfield remains unbeaten in their last 12 league games while Coleraine continues to be plagued with inconsistencies in the league. Linfield is almost at the finish line and all the signs point to a Championship glory for Linfield this season. We believe Linfield will have a tough time here and our prediction leans towards a victory or a draw for Linfield. Let’s analyze both teams’ forms, key stats, and my expert opinion.

Linfield FC (1st)

Form in the League: WWDWW

Linfield continues to advance in the Northern Ireland Premiership and with 3 games remaining in the regular season, Linfield may be on their way to Championship glory this season. They were saved by the ropes by Michael Fitzpatrick in their last league game against Loughgall which ended in a 1-0 defeat. 

Linfield remains unbeaten in their last 12 league games. It’s also important to note that Linfield have not lost a home game in their last 10 league home matches and they also have a good away record. Linfield is currently in the top flight in the Northern Ireland Premier League table with 21 wins, 4 draws, and 4 losses from 29 games played, 54 goals scored, and 21 goals conceded. Joel Cooper is the team's top scorer with 15 goals.

Coleraine FC (8th)

Form in the League: LWDDL

Coleraine once again lost to Glentoran in their last league game which ended in a 1-2 defeat. Coleraine conceded two goals first but they managed to get one back in the 90th minute through Matthew Shevlin. Coleraine is experiencing a string of inconsistencies in the league and we believe this might affect their performance on Saturday against the Glens. 

Coleraine is now 8th placed in the league with 9 wins, 8 draws, and 10 losses from 27 games played and Matthew Shevlin is the team's top scorer with 17 goals scored in the league.
