National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Institute or PSNI that keep their silverware dream alive.

Only a few days to rest for the team playing at home, as they played a Championship game only three days back. This match was also played here at The Showgrounds. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, PSNI have had more rest.

Institute form and stats

Institute participated in Irish League Cup the last season, where they reached the semi-finals.

The story so far in the Championship for Institute at their home stadium (The Showgrounds) is 1 win, 0 draws and 3 defeats.

The Institute fans got no joy from their last match, a Championship game also here at The Showgrounds: A 0-1 defeat against H&W Welders.

Before that, Institute had a Championship home game versus Dundela which ended with a victory 2-1.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Championship game versus Ards in only four days. This game is also played here at The Showgrounds.

Institute have scored 3 league goals here from 4 matches, not a lot. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Institute defense is not exactly impregnable. 7 goals conceded from 4 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

PSNI form and stats

PSNI was sent out of Irish League Cup in the 2nd round last season.

PSNI have only collected 14 points from their away games in the Championship, after 4-2-10 (16 played). With the PSNI losing streak of five defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking.

PSNI's previous game was their home loss versus Dundela (2-4). As you can tell from the result, the match against Dundela was as crazy as a clown in a village circus. Great fun for the neutral supporter with 6 goals, will the fun continue today?

The game before that, in the Championship, was lost at home, a 2-4 defeat against Dundela.

PSNI find the net regularly in their away games. 22 goals from 16 away fixtures in the league. There are big problems for the PSNI defense as they have conceded 52 goals in 16 away games.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last seven meetings: five - one - one (Institute wins - draws - PSNI wins). As for goals, three matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), four had two or less.
