2026-27 Premiership Season Preview

The 2026-27 Boyle Sports Premiership kicks off with fireworks: Cliftonville vs Crusaders in a Belfast derby, Limavady United’s debut against Glentoran, and title favorites Coleraine taking on Dungannon Swifts. Larne begin their title defense away at Bangor, while European commitments could shift early fixtures for Coleraine, Glentoran, Larne, and Linfield. The big clash? Linfield vs Glentoran at Windsor Park on August 15th. Boxing Day brings local rivalries, including Portadown vs Dungannon, after Glenavon’s demotion.
