RUAIDHRI Higgins spoke to Coleraine TV ahead of the Bannsiders’ clash at home to Portadown tomorrow night…

In the third meeting between the two clubs this season, Higgins remarked how the Ports have been a “tough opponent” so far this season and how they have attacking threats who can hurt his side.

Coleraine have played extra-time in their last two games and Higgins said he is pleased with where the group is at, as well as welcoming the returns of Will Patching and Jamie Glackin from injury.

Higgins added how there are fitness concerns over Cameron Stewart, Lyndon Kane and Rowan McDonald but that he has versatility within his group to cope.

Despite cross-channel football being live, Higgins outlined how he’d love to see a big support out on the terraces.
