Portadown are ready to clash heads with Linfield in this Premiership game. All you can know about the fixture can be found here!

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Portadown form and stats

Portadown have less points than they have played home games in the Premiership so far. Their two previous attempts here have produced 1 point.

Portadown's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 2-3 versus Larne (placed 2nd). The defeat against Larne was especially painful as the deciding goal against was scored two minutes into stoppage time (by L. Lynch).

A defeat was the result before that one, 0-4 away at Crusaders.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Irish League Cup game versus Newington Youth in only three days. This game is also played here at Shamrock Park.

At Shamrock Park, Portadown has the goal stats of 3-4 (for/against) from 2 league fixtures.

Linfield form and stats

Let's have a look at how Linfield performed last season in the Premiership: They landed a 1st position in the league table after playing out 22 victories, 4 draws and 7 defeats. In total they scored 76 and conceded 34 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 8 - drew 2 and lost 6 with 27/25 goals scored/conceded.

234 minutes! That's how long the Linfield goalkeeper Chris Johns and his defense have shut out their league opponents.

Impressive finishing from C. Manzinga (2) secured the home win 2-0 against Crusaders in their previous game.

A 1-3 defeat away at Zalgiris before that.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Linfield manager D. Healy as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Ballyclare Comrades.

Head 2 Head
