run which includes a 2-0 home success over the Ports. United midfielder James McKenna misses the match because of a one-match suspension after picking up five yellow cards this season but Jason McCartney is eligible again. Ballymena are at home to Crusaders with Sky Blues boss Glenn Ferguson aiming to pick his players up after their 6-0 hammering at home to Linfield in Monday night's League Cup quarter-final. United are unbeaten at home in the league for nine months but confidence will have taken a knock. Crusaders, unbeaten in five in the league, are up to third although they have been inconsistent on their travels this term. At the bottom of the table, the big encounter sees Glenavon, with just one point from their last seven matches, take on one-from-bottom Donegal Celtic, the only Premiership team without an away win all season. Glenavon will be boosted by their League Cup win over Glentoran while former assistant manager at Mourneview Park, Pat McAllister, has recently started a second spell in charge of DC. "Packie will have them fired up and it is also the first time back at Mourneview for Mark Miskimmin and Peter McCann so they will be out to show what they can do," Glenavon player-manager told his club's website. "If we keep the same attitude, will to win, hunger and desire that we showed on Monday night, the result will take care of itself, there is no doubt about that."
