  1. KICK-OFFpublished at 18:00 BST

    Dungannon Swifts 0-0 Linfield

    Kyle McClean gets the game under way for the visitors at Stangmore Park.

    It's third versus fourth with both teams sitting on 12 points from five games, but will something give this evening?

  2. Team newspublished at 17:32 BST

    Dungannon Swifts v Linfield (18:00 BST)

    Both Dungannon and Linfield may have lost on the opening day, but have put that firmly behind them with four consecutive wins each since then.

    With both teams sitting on 12 points, a victory today for either side would bring them back within one point of Coleraine at the Irish Premiership summit.

    Swifts boss Rodney McAree makes three changes to his side that beat Limavady 2-0 on the road last week. In come Danny Wallace, Tiernan Kelly and Jamie Glackin for Leo Alves, Cathal McGinty and Gael Bigirimana.

    David Healy on the other hand makes just the one change with Preston North End loanee Kitt Nelson replacing the absent Matthew Fitzpatrick.

    Dungannon Swifts: Dunne, Scott, McKeown, Kelly, Dillon, Gordon, Glackin, Doyle (c), Wallace, Junior, McAllister.

    Subs: Henderson, McGinty, Smith, Mitchell, Alves, Low, Johnston.

    Linfield: Johns, Shields (c), Millar, McClean, Frizzell, Hall, Baird, McGee, Nelson, Moore, McCullough.

    Subs: Glavin, Offord, Wells, Brennan, Brown, Annett, Chapman.

  6. FULL-TIMEpublished at 16:54 BST

    Portadown 0-2 Larne

    Larne win at Shamrock Park.

    In truth they never looked threatened, even with being a man down for an hour.

    Portadown were toothless in attack and they remain pointless.

  7. FULL-TIMEpublished at 16:54 BST

    Carrick Rangers 1-3 Cliftonville

    It's all over at Taylors Avenue where Cliftonville stage a come from behind win to move up into third place in the league on goal difference from Linfield.

    The hosts went in front after 10 minutes through Caleb Hawthorne but Cliftonville levelled five minutes later through Kyle McClelland.

    Ben Quinn edged them in front before half-time before Dean McMaster made the points safe in the dying moments with a beautifully flighted free-kick.

    So the Reds' recent good form continues while it's a second consecutive loss for an understrength Carrick Rangers.

  8. FULL-TIMEpublished at 16:54 BST

    Crusaders 1-2 Limavady United

    Limavady are up and running with their first points of the season!

  9. YELLOW CARDpublished at 16:53 BST

    Crusaders 1-2 Limavady United

    Harry Jewitt-White's swipe at John Butcher earns the Crusaders midfielder a yellow card.

    It might also allow the visitors to see this game over the line.

  10. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:51 BST

    Crusaders 1-2 Limavady United

    Limavady try to eat up a few second with a double change as Oisin Duffy and Stephen O'Donnell replace Jamie McGonigle and Ronan Wilson.

  11. FULL-TIMEpublished at 16:51 BST

    Glentoran 1-1 Bangor

    The spoils are shared at the Oval.

    More boos from the home fans as the teams exit the pitch. It is safe to say that Bangor are a lot more impressed with the point than Glentoran!

  12. Postpublished at 16:50 BST

    Crusaders 1-2 Limavady United

    Harry Jewitt-White chips a cross into the Limavady penalty area which Keiran McKechnie, at full stretch, can only head over.

    We're into stoppage time at Seaview.

    Portadown 0-2 Larne

    A minimum of four minutes added time to be played here at Shamrock Park

    GOAL - Carrick Rangers 1-3 Cliftonvillepublished at 16:47 BST

    Dean McMaster (90 mins)

    That should be that as Dean McMaster scores direct from a free-kick to extend Cliftonville's lead as we enter added time.

    The midfielder curled a beautifully flighted effort over the wall and out of the reach of Nathan Gartside for his second of the season.

  15. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 16:47 BST

    Crusaders 1-2 Limavady United

    Harry Jewitt-White comes within inches of levelling the game when his deflected long-range strike crashes back off the Limavady crossbar.

  16. YELLOW CARDpublished at 16:47 BST

    Carrick Rangers 1-2 Cliftonville

    Kyle Cherry is booked as we enter four additional minutes.

  17. YELLOW CARDpublished at 16:46 BST

    Crusaders 1-2 Limavady United

    Limavady's Stephen Lowry's burst in the centre circle is halted as he is pulled back by Keiran McKechnie.

    Referee Christopher Morrison lets play continue before returning to book the Crusaders player after no advantage occurs.

  18. CLOSE!published at 16:44 BST

    Portadown 0-2 Larne

    Portadown should have one on the scoreboard.

    The ball is played through to Ahu Obhakhan, who has a clear shot at goal from six yards, but the substitute drags his shot wide of the near post.

  19. Postpublished at 16:43 BST

    Crusaders 1-2 Limavady United

    At the other end, Owen Wardell's long-range strike brings lots of oohs and aahs from the home support but it goes wide of the target.

  20. Postpublished at 16:42 BST

    Crusaders 1-2 Limavady United

    John Butcher fires a snap-shot over the bar from a corner as Limavady chase a third goal.
