CAR PARKING

Supporters are to be aware that due to limited spaces, the car park within Inver Park will not be open to supporters attending the game.

We would also like to remind supporters to be mindful and aware of residents who live just outside the stadium and to not block access to private properties when parking your car within this area.

 

 

PRE-MATCH

In the main carpark before the game, there will be a number of activities set up for younger ones to enjoy!

The inflatable penalty shoot-out challenge will be set up just outside the Club Superstore and there will also be two Teqball stations for the younger (and older!) ones to enjoy before the game.

APR Football are also back in town with their Fast Feet challenge which you can try for just £2 a go before the game and at half-time! (card payment available).

 

 

THE INVER REDS

Tiernan Lynch’s side find themselves top of the Sports Direct Premiership standings and know that a victory would give them a four-point advantage tonight.

The Invermen are unbeaten in the league since September and are yet to concede a league goal in 2024, highlighting the great run of form that the Inver Reds are currently on.

As part of NIFL’s partnership with the British Heart Foundation NI and in aid of Heart Month, our players will be wearing promotional t-shirts during the warm-up in support of the cause.

 

 

THE OPPOSITION

Glentoran find themselves on a strong run of form, unbeaten in the Sports Direct Premiership since Boxing Day.

The Glens last tasted defeat in all competitions in the Co. Antrim Shield final and have been on a strong run ever since, scoring a lot of goals including eight against Newry City last weekend.

After a hat-trick last weekend, Daire O’Connor will be looking to continue his goalscoring form as Warren Fenney’s side look to close the gap on the top three in the standings.
