Linfield vs Glentoran in the BetMcLean Cup Final at the Clearer Twist National Stadium in Windsor Park will mark the first time in 16 years that the ‘Big Two’ have met in the final of a knockout cup competition – raising the stakes for Sunday’s showpiece.
Linfield are aiming to lift the trophy for the 13th time, while seven-time winners Glentoran are chasing their first BetMcLean Cup success since 2010 after losing last year’s final to Cliftonville. The rivals have met three times in the Premier League this season, with each side earning a 1-0 win at Windsor Park along with a draw at the Oval.
Glentoran midfielder Cameron Palmer said his side are motivated to turn last year’s disappointment – defeat in the final – into a positive memory for supporters. He also added that February’s defeat to Linfield will have little bearing on the final.
Interestingly, this BetMcLean Cup final will also see VAR used for the first time in home football in Northern Ireland. Read on as we outline how to watch Linfield vs Glentoran online for free from anywhere in the world.
