The latest edition of live Friday Night Football on BBC Two NI will feature Glentoran and Linfield on 20 March in the Danske Bank Premiership.

In March, Belfast’s big two go head-to-head at the Oval in a game that could go a long way to deciding who lifts the Gibson Cup this season. Glentoran host Linfield in East Belfast on Friday 20 March. It will be the first time that the ‘Big Two derby’ will be shown live on Friday Night Football. Coverage starts at 7:30pm on BBC Two Northern Ireland.

Before that Big Two clash will Linfield and Crusaders meet in the league on Friday 21 February at Windsor Park. Current champions Linfield are top of the division, a point ahead of Glentoran, and just two ahead of the Crues in third. Live coverage on BBC Two Northern Ireland starts at 7.30pm.

BBC Northern Ireland will also two games in April following the league ‘split’.
