On their day they play football as appealingly as any other side in the League, but lately the goals have dried up.
Seventeen in the first 7 league games of the season, Coleraine hasn’t averaged a goal a game since. At least they remain mean at the back, but lack of goal power has seen the Bannsiders slip to sixth place in the table, just 5 points above bitter rivals, Ballymena United, their hosts in the first Holiday fixture.
Four of their last eleven in the league have ended scoreless (that’s two more than any other club all season), three of those at fortress Showgrounds.
