RUAIDHRI Higgins spoke to Coleraine TV ahead of the Bannsiders’ fixture against Cliftonville tomorrow afternoon…

Higgins started the interview by commenting on Cliftonville’s recent form after four successive wins, as well as how the Bannsiders have found the Reds a tough nut to crack in recent years.

Coleraine reached the semi-final of the Irish Cup last weekend and Higgins stated he was delighted to see his players reach the last four of the competition, where they will play Larne.

Higgins, alongside assistant coach Kevin Deery, is suspended for tomorrow’s clash but Higgins stressed that all the preparation will be done prior to kick-off.

He also provided a positive injury update as Lyndon Kane, Kodi Lyons-Foster and Connor Murray all eye returns at some point.
