Our pre-match preview

Linfield are likely to dominate possession and press for the ball high up the pitch, looking to build from the back. Ballymena United will probably sit deeper and look to counter through quick transitions when the ball is won back.

The key battle is Linfield's midfield against Ballymena's midfield, where whoever controls the central zone will shape the tempo. Ballymena's ability to find space on the break against Linfield's back line could decide how open the game becomes.
