DEAN Shiels says the Sports Direct Premiership “throws different challenges at you” as the Bannsiders prepare for Saturday’s clash at Larne…

The head coach started his pre-match interview by reflecting on last weekend’s victory at Glenavon, where Declan McManus netted a late free-kick to seal all three points.

Shiels said that win came after a “tough, tough” encounter at Mourneview Park and it was simply about finding a way to come away with all three points.

As well as winning our last three games, Coleraine have kept clean sheets in the process and Shiels remarked that has been the result of “hard work in training”.

In a squad update, Shiels says there’s “a few niggles” in the camp but he is confident that he will be able to field as strong a team as possible.
