Head-to-Head
Historic Irish League rivalry in Belfast. Linfield tend to shade the matchup over a large sample, but Solitude is rarely comfortable for them and league meetings are often tight, one-goal games or level late. Odds lean Linfield (~4/5) yet a high-card derby profile keeps the draw live.11
