Live Betting: Portadown v. Glenavon

North Ireland's Danske Bank Premiership season is building up some tight competition at the table's top. Tonight at Shamrock Park the mid-Ulster derby will go down with Portadown meeting Glenavon.

With a win, Portadown (21 pts) could very well move within one point only from league leaders Linfield (23 pts) who've won 2-0 against Dungannon Saturday. This would mean more pressure on Linfield as the fight for the top remains tightly packed. Portadown's veteran manager Ronnie Mcfall seems confident in his team's ability to emerge victorious from the match, also noting that this is a home match for the Ports, but he has expressed his concern with his team's tendency to concede the first goal, a case which has occurred in five of the ten league games that have taken place so far. However statistics stand with the Ports: they have won six successive home games. 

As for Glenavon, the team is on a losing run having conceded two defeats against Crusaders and Linfield respectively. They'll want to snap out of the losing streak and noting Mcfall's comments, might try to push hard for an early goal to pressure the Ports.
