Their attacking play has looked sharp and their defensive organisation has been solid throughout this run. They travel to Bangor with confidence and a clear tactical identity.
Bangor have managed just one win in their last five outings and will need to improve significantly to cause an upset here. The head-to-head record adds to their challenge, with Coleraine winning four of the last five meetings, including a commanding 5-0 victory. Bangor will need to be defensively disciplined and clinical on the counter if they are to take anything from this game.
