    Kurtis Forsythe beats his man down the right before whipping a low cross into the area.

    His cross is well blocked and goes behind for a corner, which comes to nothing.

    Forsythe has looked lively so far down the right channel.

    Crusaders have responded well since going a goal down and go straight up the other end creating a chance of their own.

    Kurtis Forsythe does well down the right as he picks out Adam Brooks inside the area, whose shot is well blocked by an Annagh United defender.

    Elliot Dunlop also has a chance at the back post but can't quite summon the ball under control as it goes out for a goal kick.

  19. What the managers had to say ahead of the big gamepublished at 19:43 BST

    Crusaders v Annagh United (19:45 BST)

    Crusaders manager Declan Caddell: "It is at home and a pitch we are familiar with.

    "Unfortunately, in the first leg we picked up a few injuries which isn't good but there is equal quality to come in. Good, quality players, who we will need.

    "Players know the importance of the match, they have known for weeks now."

    Annagh manager Ciaran McGurgan: "Crusaders were everything we expected.

    "We got joy in their defence but going forward they are pacey and have some very, very good players.

    "They are a good side, but like before the first leg, we can see their weaknesses and hopefully we can exploit that on Friday."

    Crusaders v Annagh United (19:45 BST)

    Crusaders welcome Annagh United to Seaview for the second leg of the Irish Premiership promotion/relegation play-off with just three days after their come-from-behind 3-2 victory on Tuesday night.

    Declan Caddell had to contend with a few injury blows on Tuesday night, and seemingly makes two changes to his starting XI as a result.

    Fraser Bryden and Cameron Bruce miss out altogether, with Jacob Blaney and Lloyd Anderson coming in to the side.

    Annagh boss Ciaran McGurgan on the other hand names an unchanged side following Tuesday night's narrow defeat.

    Crusaders: Dibaga, Forsythe, Blaney, McKechnie, Jewitt-White (c), Brooks, Dunlop, Williamson, Rough, Anderson, Barr.

    Subs: Tuffey, Hamilton, Owens, Nixon, McCart, Maguire, James.

    Annagh United: Little, J.Henderson, Swan, N.Henderson (c), Balde, Taylor, Rogers, Upton, Redman, Teggart, Donnelly.

    Subs: Marron, Calvert, Young, Convie, Johnson, Jinadu, Farr.
