Coleraine vs Cliftonville Betting Tips - Coleraine to win
Coleraine will be looking to maintain a strong run of form when they take on Cliftonville this week. Dean Shiels side extended their unbeaten run to four matches with a hard-fought 1:1 draw in Saturday's Premiership contest against Larne.
Before their point picked up on the road on Saturday, Coleraine had scored three successive league victories over the past three weeks.
Up to seventh in the division, Shiels men sit just one point outside the top-six and with form improving, remain in contention for a strong end of season finish. The Bannsiders find themselves only five points behind third-placed Larne in the race for European qualification places.
Cliftonville make the trip to The Showgrounds having slipped to back-to-back defeats in the past week. Now facing a third fixture in only six days, the Reds could struggle to deal with their in-form hosts on Tuesday.
Jim Magilton´s side have struggled on their travels this season, particularly in recent weeks. Cliftonville collected just one point from their seven most recent away fixtures.
With fatigue potentially an issue for the visitors, I'm putting my money on Coleraine claiming a narrow win on Tuesday.

Cliftonville team news
Cliftonville boss Magilton is likely to rotate his squad after a busy week saw visitors lose back-to-back league fixtures after their Irish Cup win earlier this month.
In-form veteran Joseph Gormley is likely to lead the line as he looks to add to his tally of 16 goals scored this season.
