Ballymena United v Carrick Rangers (Saturday, 15:00 GMT, coverage on Sportsound)
Jim Ervin has had a good couple months at the start of this season and being at home, they’ll favour a win at the Showgrounds. Carrick always make it difficult, and [Stephen] Baxter has certainly steadied the ship. They’ve started to collect points in games that earlier in the season would’ve passed them by. I still fancy Ballymena to take the points.
Prediction: 2-1
Crusaders v Dungannon Swifts (Saturday, 15:00 GMT, coverage on Sportsound)
Dungannon have been great this year, they play good football and score goals and should give a good account of themselves. I just can’t see them going and getting the result. Seaview is a difficult place to win and it should be a physical one!
Prediction: 2-2
Glenavon v Coleraine (Saturday, 15:00 GMT, coverage on Sportsound)
It’s no secret Glenavon are struggling for form. It’d be interesting to see if Paddy McLaughlin can get his style of play going. I think as long as they collect points, they’ll be happy.
Predictions: 1-1
Linfield v Portadown (Saturday, 15:00 GMT, coverage on Sportsound)
To go to Windsor and win is hard, and I think the Ports will struggle. Against the bottom six, Linfield never seem to drop points.
Prediction 3-1
Loughgall v Glentoran (Saturday, 15:00 GMT, coverage on Sportsound)
Dean Smith’s team have found it hard in their second season in the Premiership. Glentoran should be coming into this one bouncing, especially off the back of a win in the ‘Big Two’ last weekend.
Prediction: 0-2
Larne v Cliftonville (Sunday, 14:00 GMT, live on BBC iPlayer & BBC Sport NI website & app)
We’re going into the game feeling good, a couple points off top spot. These big games are make or break for any title challenge. A new manager in Nathan Rooney throws in a curveball, but we need to be at our best and perform in front of the BBC cameras!
Prediction: N/A (We’ll let him off this one!)
Join Conor with Michael McNamee on Sportsound this Saturday from 14:00 GMT on BBC Radio Ulster, BBC Sounds and the BBC Sport website.
