Irish Premiership up for grabs as Glens host Larne
With two games to go and just three points separating Larne and Glentoran at the top of the table, the title race has truly gone down to the wire as the pair meet at the Oval on Friday.
With two games to go, just three points separate the top two teams in the Irish Premiership - with the same goal difference. The title race has truly gone down to the wire this season. Now, in what could prove to be a title-decider, top of the table Larne travel to title rivals Glentoran at the Oval on Friday live on BBC iPlayer and the BBC Sport website.
The Inver Reds can secure the Gibson Cup if they are the victors in east Belfast but if Glens win or the teams draw, the title race will go down to the final game of the season. BBC Sport NI takes a look ahead to the huge match at the Oval. What is at stake?
If Larne can avoid defeat, they remain in the driving seat to become this year's Irish Premiership champions. The Inver Reds currently sit three points ahead of the Glens and know that three points at the Oval would be enough to secure the Gibson Cup for a third time in four seasons. Declan Devine's side need to avoid defeat to keep their title challenge going, and three points for his outfit will mean that the teams would be level going into the final round of fixtures.
If the sides draw, Larne will enter the last match of the season with a three-point advantage at the top, and they will still have the same goal difference. Larne face Dungannon Swifts at Inver Park in their final fixture, while Glentoran travel to play Coleraine with both games 17:30 BST kick-off. Players to watch Pat Hoban was recently named NIFL's Player of the Season, and he will certainly play a key role on Friday.
