The Premiership is the top soccer competition in the country. While the main goal for some teams in the Premiership may be to win the title, all teams compete in the league with varying objectives. Some teams may aim to avoid relegation to a lower league, while others may strive for a top-spot finish to qualify for International competitions. Therefore, all teams in the league put in their best effort during matches to achieve their respective goals.

Currently, Ballymena United is in 10th place position, and Crusaders is in 8th place.

Ballymena United are coming from a loss in their last appearance against Coleraine, by 2-1, while Crusaders, won in their most recent encounter, against H&W Welders, 1-2.

The bookmakers are heavily favoring Crusaders in this game, and it's easy to see why. They are the clear favorites and will be expected to take home the win.

Last season, the Premiership had an average of yellow cards per match of 3.97—a good indication for this start of the tournament that the competition's referees usually give few warnings.

In the Premiership duels last season, on average, we had 8.91 corners per match. So we can see that the games were very eventful, as they should be at the beginning of the competition.

Historically, home teams tend to perform better in Premiership matches, which is reflected in the average number of goals scored per home appearance in the last edition of the tournament, which was 1.65. It is expected that this trend will continue in the current season.

It is not so usual to see visiting clubs manage to score many goals. Last season's figures, for example, show this. The average number of goals scored by teams playing away from home in the competition was 1.19 goals per game.
