Striving Institute need to pull off a surprise when they host top side Ards in the next league match. It’s 10th vs 2nd and the home fans will have modest confidence.
- Institute have the most conceded goals in the first half (12) in Championship
- Ards have scored at least twice as many goals as they have conceded.
It's no vacation for neither Institute nor Ards as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
