Linfield vs Glentoran in the BetMcLean Cup final at the Clearer Twist National Stadium in Windsor Park will mark the first time in 16 years that the ‘Big Two’ will meet in the final of a knockout cup competition, raising the stakes for Sunday’s showpiece.
Linfield are aiming to lift the trophy for the 13th time, while seven-time winners Glentoran are chasing their first BetMcLean Cup success since 2010 after losing last year’s final to Cliftonville. The rivals have met three times in the Premiership this season, with each team recording a 1-0 win at Windsor Park along with a draw at the Oval.
Glentoran midfielder Cameron Palmer said his team is motivated to turn last year’s disappointment – a loss in the final – into a positive memory for fans. He also added that February’s defeat to Linfield will have little to do with the final.
Interestingly, this BetMcLean Cup final will also see VAR used for the first time in Northern Ireland domestic football. Read on as we outline how you can watch Linfield vs Glentoran online for free from anywhere in the world.
