Institute welcome Linfield to the Riverside this afternoon for a Danske Bank Premiership clash as they bid to record their first win over the Belfast giants (kick off 3.00pm).
The Blues have won 13 of the 15 games played since the sides first met in the 2009-2010 season, the other two being draws – 2-2 at Windsor Park in the same season and 0-0 at Drumahoe in the 2003-2004 campaign.
The sides last met in the fifth round of the Irish Cup in the 2010-2011 when Linfield recorded a comfortable 5-1 home win.
Stute boss Paul Kee has several players available who missed last week’s narrow defeat to defending champions Cliftonville when an injury-time Stephen Garrett goal took all three points back to Belfast.
Mark Scoltock returns to the squad after missing last week’s game due to attending his brother’s wedding.
Midfielder Michael McCrudden, Cormac Burke and Stephen O’Donnell could also make the squad.
