Play-off permutations

Cliftonville will be at home in the European Play-Off semi-finals – but our opponents won’t be determined until after next Sunday’s Samuel Gelston’s Whiskey Irish Cup Final.

The Reds’ fourth place finish in the Danske Bank Premiership means Solitude will host a semi-final tie next month and, should Crusaders win the Cup, Coleraine will be our visitors on Wednesday, May 10.

If, however, it’s Ballymena United who lift the trophy, Cliftonville will tackle the Crues in a North Belfast Derby duel on the weekend of May 13.
