Ports trio miss Windsor visit

PORTADOWN will travel to Windsor Park for this evening's clash with Linfield short of firepower against the Premiership's second-placed team.

Strike duo Darren Murray and Gary Twigg are missing because of suspension, while former Blues forward Mark McAllister is likely to be sidelined with a hamstring injury.

McAllister was substituted in last Saturday's 3-0 win away to Dungannon Swifts and defeat would see Warren Feeney's side go 10 points clear of the Ports and move within three points of League leaders Crusaders.

Linfield have suffered defeat in just one of their last 15 games although a slip up this evening could be disastrous in their pursuit of the Gibson Cup.
