Crusaders get back to business quickly after the 2-2 draw against Carrick Rangers on Tuesday night at Seaview. Dungannon Swifts are the visitors who currently sit in 4th place in the table and who have won three of their last four games.
Rodney McAree will be pleased having collected all nine points over Christmas with wins against Portadown, Bangor and Glenavon respectively but he will tell his side that it must be followed up with a win against Crusaders to keep on the tails of the top three in the Sports Direct Premiership. Declan Caddell will also be hoping to keep momentum going with a superb win over Cliftonville on Boxing Day followed by a draw against Carrick Rangers. As players return from injury the team is getting stronger and with belief and heart he knows that better days are not far away.
